The real problem is cold tires. I had this happen in my Chevy Malibu. Since its German Law to use S+M rated tires in the winter, when they put the S+M tires on, the noise went away. Your tires are not designed for freezinf temp on the road surface, your basicly slidding on the tires and the car is compensating with the vlsd.

After being here, its never a bad idea to get yourself a set of Snow Tires for the winter. I was extremly amazed how they improved my traction after putting them on. I hope the US will follow most countries that get snow and make this a law. It could save you lots of money in the long run.
