   Just after i start the car, i can hear what sounds like a munching/ biting noise. It lasts for a second and that's it. Happens every time i start the car.
   
   Worn out starter motor?

   Not when your starting, literately just as the car begins to fire.
   
   I have a 1.1 starter motor if that'll fit?
