starting problems....not starter

Almost everytime I start my car it makes this awful grinding/screeching noise. I just had the starter replaced thinking this was the culprit, yet its still there. Has anyone else ever experienced this? What else could it be?

Did you replace the starter yourself?

Where did you get the replacment starter from? I recently replaced my starter for the second time in about 5 years. The starter pep boys gave me turned out to be bad and I had to go back and get a new one. It could still be your starter.

I had it done at my local gas station, Iv had work done there before. And the screeching doesnt sound like a belt, and its been the same through 2 starters, so im assuming that thats not it.
