Cold start funny squeakeing noise ?
« on: 08 December 2010, 13:00 »
When I started my Car this morning I could hear funny squeaking noise coming from left side of the engine?

Is this a cam belt problem?  :undecided:

Not the cam belt, no. Possibly just the accessory drive belt or tensioner pulley. It'll probably go away when the weather warms a little, if not get your dealer to check the belt tension.

Turn the radio up, if it falls off later they can fix it then!!! :sad: Maybe you poured water on it filling the screen wash?

Hi
