i have that problem where it sounds like metal scrapping and it was the A/C Compressor clutch that only made noise in the winter. i just ignored it! ---------------- ~Nate owner of a: 1999 Pontiac Grand AM GT 3.4L HO 1996 Pontiac Grand Prix SE 3.1L (dead!) 1994 Pontiac Grand Prix SE 3.1L (Also dead!) both GPs died @ 200,000 miles relating to Lower intake manifold gasket! WATCH THOSE!! I have the same car and a similar sound when cold. I think it could be the sharter silinoid stiching or the powersteering pump.
