Question:
When i start the car from cold the noise is really bad but as the car warms up its not so bad and when i put my foot on the clutch the noise goes completley,
Also now everytime i brake or slow down theres a load kind of knock from the engine like metal against metal,
And the other day when i was driving i heard a noise from the engine kind of like metal bouncing around as if something had come loose,
The car is a 1996 mitsubishi mirage VIE saloon 1.5 DOHC.

If not I'd say you may well have either a warped thrust bearing (although this normally comes with a whine and not a knock) or much more likely your drive plate is chipped and has a cog or two missing. Unfortunately if you driven the car more than a few miles like this your gearbox is likely to be damaged too.

If it has got a lot of mileage up, it could be piston slap which tends to reduce when the engine is warm, or a more heavy noise is big end knock, If it sounds like stoned in the engine it is pre-ignition which is not so serious, but it will take an experience ear to listen to it.
