Yep, Small air lock in the system, Start the car from cold and remove the header tank cap, Turn your heaters onto full hot and top up slowly as and when needed, giving the top hose a squeeze now and again, More than likely just not enough water running through the heater matrix if it sounds like its coming from the glove box

Oh and turn your caps lock off

Mine does this. Searched on here about it a little while ago and it seems like its a common problem. Not harmful just annoying from what I found

My Legacy did this all the 18months I owned it. Not one problem.

Do a search for "burping". There is a method to get rid of the air, which is in your cooling system. It worked for me!

just got into car,turnt heaters onto full hot,took off the header tank cap and then started the car from cold.heard the burbling noise but went away quicker than normal,then let it run for a few mins giving the top hose a few squeezes,
turnt off and put cap back on,heaters off and started 5/6 times and no noise at all hopefully will be okay now,will see when i start it next time from cold later on tonight

If it does it again just repeat the process... you'll get there in the end and don't forget to top it up if it needs it
