Default weird noise

i turned on my car my h/c a4 c5 and heard a weird noise. it sounded like metal was gitting meatal. the first thing that came to my mind was that my exhasut was lose and would rattle cause of the cam. i checked it but it was tight.then i thought my starter was loose since i would hear a noise coming from right behind the motor. so i took it to the mechanic today and he told me that its not the starter. u can actually move the stall converter about 4 inches. he tells me that its the torque lube. what do u guys think? and what messes up in the torque lube thanx guys
