starting to get some wierd noises when starting up - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

just noticed this over the past week but all of a sudden now when i start it up it sounds like im getting a grinding noise. i'll try and post a video of the noise if its noticeable with my digi cam.

but until then is there anything that i should be alerted to check?

check to see if the starter is loose first then if you can see the flex plate see if you can see any visual cracks on it although that would be more of a bang than a grind
