irritating noise

Post by benmkiv »

every time i start her up when shes been cold, theres a horrible noise. Theres no problem starting her, she goes first time its just after she has started theres a crunch which is the same sort of crunch as when you miss a gear and then thats it.

any ideas?

im thinking maybe starter motor or alternator? :(

Mine has this from time to time also, normally its when the car is cold and i'm reversing up the drive.
Sounds as if you have crunched a gear but I wouldnt worry about it mate, mine's been doing it for 2 years without any problems.
