Today i went out to move my car because my boat was ready to fall on it. Well i let it warm up for 10 sec and then moved it up to the driveway. As i begain to move i heard this weird noise. Sounded like lug nuts banging around in a metal oil can. Like a cow bell or something. I quickly got out of the car and popped the hood and heard it closer. I was like wtf is this. So i just turned the car off. This is all in about a 2min span. I restarted the car and the noise was gone. I drove about 10miles got gas and came back and have not heard the noise. I can't figure out what it was, it has been raining and i didn't drive yesterday, maybe water got in something? Anyone have experience with this.

you didn't back into a cow did you? j/k, so it was like a loud clangy/rattling noise? Can't say I've heard it, but I heard an awful lot of squeeking over xmas on my drive back from canada, i found later it was because water got into the bushings and froze, so the front suspension squeeked under even the slightest of weight transfer, also on that ride home, while I waited for 2 hours on the ambassador bridge, my sterring wheel made a funny sound while a turned it left to right and back, the kinda noise you make when you run your finger nails up and down a vinyl/nylon jacket, or the sound a zipper makes when you open and shut it repeatedly. Lol, sorry for the trip down memory lane, if it never happens again, just don't add to this thread

the only time I ever heard anything that sounded like what your saying was when my friend blew his H23a1. I know you didnt blow your motor...just thought I'd add my stupid $.02.

only time i heard a noise like that was when I drove my 84 cavalier .. somethin i the tranny fvcked up and a chunk popped out of the bellhousing, say about 1.5" square ... tranny fluid leaked everywhere and the tranny shifted fine but for some reason punched out a hole, the metal was flying around in the tranny bellhousing ... yea.. that was my 2nd transmission never gm again.
