Squealing

Willy-Beemon · 02-13-2017, 06:42 PM

Good Evening, Anybody have a good idea what this squeal might be. Took it to the dealer and they cannot confirm if its a pulley, tensioner etc. They said it quite possibly is a belt slipping. Any guesses??? Thanks

Belts?

Sounds like a scene from the movie Deliverance.

Sounds like a belt is scraping somewhere..
Spray some WD40 on it.

Mine does this when it's very cold outside. It will stop when the car is warmed up. Does it do the same for you?

It does it whether its hot or cold outside. Thanks for the inputs guys!!!!!

Had the same on previous car, 550 E60. Went away after warm up but still irritating. Had belt and tensioner replaced, fixed it.
