While back I ran across a bulletin about this but I can't remember where. It showed the harness under the dash was pinched by a fastener that holds a cover on the steering column. I'll try to find it.

Thinking about it I would try simply loosening the starter bolts then re-torque them. Sometimes just moving the starter a bit helps noises like this.
