Metallic "grinding" sound at engine start
Just changed the oil 1,000 miles ago. I always check the oil. Usually happens when the engine is cold, but I get a real bad grinding/metallic sound at ignition. Almost like there is no oil. Any feedback on this would be great!

i have a smiliar issue...i dont know if i would describe it as a grinding/metallic sound, mine sounds like a loud screech or scream. but seems to happen on cold starts and my oil is fine as well i had a tech from my dealership said it sounded like a starter...i dont know nothings broken so.......
