My 06 LJ grinds/crunch/screeches for one second as it turns over and then instantly stops. It does not do it again as the car is on, and it performs well otherwise. No delay in start. Pretty much goes key in and turn — crank-crank -grind/crunch while turning over for one second or less-- normal driving. Not even sure whats going on at this point considering no driving capabilities have been compromised. I am honestly not sure if it happens every single time / what makes it better or worse, I just noticed it yesterday as I do not drive the car often. The weather was nice.
A few weeks ago, I thought I heard my car make a strange noise when starting, so I turned it off and try to re-start it. At this point, the car would not start, it would not even crank or click even though all of the lights and radio would turn on. I tried an hour later - same thing. It was probably 40 degrees F. I came back at midnight when it was 10 degrees and sheets of ice everywhere and the car started right up. So maybe its battery / alternated related?? not sure. let me know.
What do you think?
