Cold Start Up Noise My car has developed the sound a baby chick or a chirping bird on a cold start up. My car is not a DD so i do not drive it all that much. What can this noise be? At about 1 minute into the vid you can hear the chirping sound.. Any ideas?
I was thinking a lifter is leaking down? But i have no ideas

I didn't hear it in the vid, but try the drive belts. Spray a little wd-40 on them when the are making the noise. If it goes aways there you go. Lapping compound works great to get rid of it for good. Just a little dab.

it starts at 1 minuets, ignore the exhaust and you can hear the high pitch chirp sound

The lapping compound got rid of it for good. Easy to check. If that doesn't take car of it you can remove the drive belts and fire it up, see if it goes away. That way you eliminate all the accessories.
ok i will try the WD40... only a little bit though... the belts are new. put them on in February. I put on Gatorbacks.....
Glad you heard what i was hearing...
Thanks
