Squealing Noise on Cold Start



  PH1 172 Sport
if the battery has started to get weak (and the cold will highlight this) then the alternator will be under extra electircal load just after startup. This can cause a little belt slip

This and the damp belt theory seem the best so far!. I'll get a voltmeter on the battery tomorrow and see what that shows.

They do tire out. I've got one of those CTEK battery charge checkers and the OE battery and it's not fully charging even after long drives. nearly 60k now and just over 4 years old. Not much to change them though, or get a nice light one ;)
