Normal. Vehicle leveling syatem.
I just purchased a 98 STS and have heard that same noise.. Happens when the key is first turned on, but continues once car is started. I tracked it down, atleast my noise. Next to the headlight switch there is a really small vent, I am guessing it is for climate control. I put my hand right in front of it and can feel air being sucked in. It sounds like the bearing is shot in mine, it gets quiet after a min or so but can still hear it.

Why would 98 Chevy truck shake at idle?
It it is a very slight shake this may be normal. Engines make vibrations and vehicle design engineers are less likely to waste time and money hiding this vibration on a truck than a car. Generally, trucks are meant to be practical more than luxurious. If it is a severe vibration, your engine may be running poorly or you may have a vibration transfer problem.

If you have average mileage on it, you should go get it checked. That is too low for an idle. The vibration is probly from the low idle.

What causes an increase in number and intensity of small earthquake before an eruptions?
Quakes move nearer to the surface as an eruption approaches. And these "microearthquakes" happen more frequently before an eruption, until all the seismometer can register is a distinctive vibration, slight but continuous, known as a harmonic tremor. The seismic activity associated with volcanism is usually as a result of pressure increases in the magma chamber....

What would cause 1998 subaru legacy outback manual transmission noise only happens when driving - not sitting. gets progressively quieter when shifted into higher gears.?
Consider the possibility of a bad differential or wheel bearing. Is it a grindey scrapey noise? If so suspect wheel bearing or differential. If car is lifted off the ground and trans in neutral, frmly grasp each tire one at a time and rotate. If a slight vibration is felt, replace that bearing. This vibration is very slight so pay attention, okay? If not show any vibration, expect a differential (or possibly but not likely transmission) problem.
