What kind of noise does a car make when it starts up?
It’s like an extremely loud rattling/clanking noise. It doesn’t do it when cranking, it’s only when the car first starts up (more noticeable on cold start-up). It’s also not every time you start it, only when it’s been sitting awhile (such as over night). I’m not exactly sure what it is but it’s pretty loud.
