Been noticing the last few days when starting in real cold weather (sub-10° weather) that I'm getting a really odd momentary screech. Almost sounds like a belt, but I don't see any adverse affects of the belt slipping.
Anyone experiencing the same? I figure it's probably because the rubber in the belt is getting super cold and contracts, making it slip on the pulleys at first, but not sure.
She is a bit of an old girl, 07 with almost 70k miles so maybe it's just time for a new belt
