Newly replaced belts squeak momentarily when car starts-why?

Post by **msdimples** » Fri May 22, 2009 12:20 am

I just had my serpentine belt and the other belt in the same area replaced 3 days ago. The car sounded great for the first evening when I left, but now about 60% of the time when I start the car, the belts squeak for about 10-15 seconds. Solution?

Needs the tension adjusted to be tighter. Bring it back to where you had it done, I would think they'd do it for free - it takes 5 minutes.

I don't think it really has a serpentine belt. But it probably needs adjusting again. Easy fix, just takes time to adjust, crank car, adjust more, crank car, etc.
