Loud noise at the start of the enging

About 3-4 days ago my car started making a very loud noise, when i turn the ignition. and it's been going on since. it mainly happens when the engin is cold and gradually the noise fades away.at first i thought it might be oil. changed that but still there? some one mentioned glow plugs could that be it??

    Is your car diesel? If not then you do not have glow plugs. What is your car model?

98 Cherokee 4.0 VERY loud grinding
Sounds like the alternator bearings have gone away, but, you need to physically check the source of the noise. (I can't do that from here).
It also seems that you may have more than one problem going on there, possibly a bad ignition switch and also a blown fuse or bad body control module. As far as why the noise seems to be only when the engine is "freewheeling" may have a lot to do with rpm change and loading when in gear. I would go after the obvious alternator problem first, then sort out the remainder later.

Just replaced Serptine Belt now car making loud
It's not uncommon for a new belt to require re-tightening soon after it's been replaced. Check the belt for any excessive slack (shouldn't have more than 1/2 -3/4" ). A loose belt would be one possible cause for the loud noise you describe.

Car wont start
If you are hearing loud clicking, this is usually the starter silinoid. This part makes a loud clicking sound if the battery cannot supply enough amperage to operate the starter to turn over the engine. The battery must supply at least 80 to 100 Amps on a normal day to start the engine.

The battery can only be tested for amperage output with a load tester. The battery may be defective from age and use, or from the alternator going defective and damaging the battery.
