Default Bad Noise on start up???

Alright so when I start up the car it recently just starting making this noise kinda like a rock or bolt is hitting against something. Does anyone know what that could be?

Also my steering makes a real loud "creek" noise everytime its turned I have no clue what is going on, it seems once I fix one thing on the car something else decides to go wrong.

aer you holding the key long enough if you let go to early the car you could be casue ing some clanging, iuserd todo that alot with my odler cars if you dont hold its its a load start, could be your starter going, get under neath hte car and check control arms and axle could be a signb of failure, or bring ti a repair shop and ask them to look if your car Dumb
