Squealing on cold start

[octanejunkie]

Lasts less than 15 seconds but it's annoying. I suspect the alternator belt.
Thoughts?

Mine was my new alternator belt. Tightened it up slightly and good to go.

The belts are cheap enough, I'd just replace them all. Mine was squealing and it was the PS belt but I replaced all three, think I used Gates belts.

Get quality belts as usual. OEM, Bando, Gates, ect..

But a little tightening would not hurt either.

I vote for alternator belt unless you have your ac set to on.
Then it might be the ac belt.

Sometimes the pulleys can get dirty over time. You could try some lectra clean on pulleys with engine running to clean them. If you go the route of new belts be damn sure to clean pulleys with lectra clean before you install new belts.

Alternator belt for sure. Had this on my Tacoma...replace all 3 since you have to take the other two off to get to it.
