My old Datsun Sentra had a bad starter/flywheel and would screech every so often when it started and not turn over. The starter slipping on the flywheel rather than engaging caused the screeching. Failing belts may also make noise before they break (serpentine should be replaced every 60k).
In my 1999 9-3 I had the bearing on the starter go at 49k. When the engine was cold the car would start and then the starter would screech for 2-3 seconds (as the starter spun down). When the engine was warm; i.e. when I showed up at the dealer to have them look at it, it started without any noise. I was still under warranty so I got a new starter and no problems since. This doesn't sound like the same problem, but since it's the same car thought I would share the info.
