clunking noise when starting HHR.
I hear a clunking noise when I start the bugger. Just had an oil change done a couple days ago and this noise started. Only at start-up, hear it once and that is it. It sounds like something is just loose or not clipped.
I have to be honest- I haven't fiddled around with the engine since I bought it two years ago (I guess that is a testament to how well it has run). I have tried to locate the sound but to no avail.
Here is a couple quick q: is the air box supposed to 'float' on top of the engine? The whole plastic panel is loose. Again, never touched it before now so I have clue if that is how it is supposed to be. I think it might be what is making the noise, but I can't find anywhere that it ties down at.

Is it possible to start these motors with the hood up? If not you could fool the hood switch into responding as if the hood was down. Anyway, having someone start the motor whilst observing the engine compartment might give some clues.
