Boiler making loud vibrating noise when heating comes on

We have a Baxi boiler, and it is regularly serviced every year. It was most recently serviced at the end of September.

Now that the weather is starting to cool down, we put the heating on occasionally. When we do, every now and then the boiler starts to make a really loud humming/vibrating now. It varies a bit in pitch and lasts from a couple of minutes to closer to 10 minutes. It settles down once the temperature has stabilized and then stays quiet for the night. It has done this in the past, usually when we start putting the heating on again after the summer.

Any ideas what might be causing this, and if it’s something that needs attention? Nothing was said when it was serviced. We’re renting the house and I don’t want to get on to my landlady unless it’s actually something she needs to know about. Thanks!
