LOUD bang after ignition ON

Has anyone else ever experience a very loud bang from the engine area (maybe sounds like it is even coming from the door area) when turning the ignition ON but before even starting the car over?

It is consistently doing this out of the blue and is very loud- thought something hit my car the first time it happened.

Does it do it every time you turn the key or only sometimes?
Can you localize where it's coming from, maybe get someone to listen from outside?

There is a fuse panel between the door and the engine compartment, but as far as I know fuses can only blow one time. Also that would be more of a pop then a bang.
