Now that its gotten colder here, almost everytime i start my car i get this low pitch squeal/hum everytime i turn it on.. it sounds very disturbing but only when starting. Even from my auto start, or when i turn the ignition. Somebody help me... Also ive felt that i lost a crap load of power? This might be a result... Thanks in advance

ye i been getting the same thing recently, i think is the accesory belts shrink a bit when its cold and that short squeel is them stretching out. ithought i was my cluth at first because mt rpms go to like 2k when i start the car, i i think its the belts.

 

you think i should replace the belts or is there anyway to get rid of that noise?

 

Did any of you got the UP?That's normal if you do.If not than you might want to check the belt,if it look's ok no crack and all,then you might need to tighten it up a bit.

 

Might be a long-shot, but in mine I traced an annoying sound to the interior blower. I've heard from a few people about it. Worth a shot.

 

I have a noise too, only when I first start it...I thought it was my belts, but just had them changed last week. It almost sounds like a bad bearing or something...but the new belts didn't help...still don't know what it is for sure.

 

im pretty sure that the belts just shrink a bit in the cold, thats why the niose is only for a second or two.
