Quick question - does anyone's engine squeak when its cold? I get this squeak like its on one part of the belt so its sort of a squeak squeak squeak instead of a solid squeak, if that makes sense?

Is that just cold belts and everyone's does it?!

You could have the same fault as me see my thread in technical  Blick with blick windows, big wheels, tow bar for nickin, side steps for the tart, DVD screens for on the go porn, 22" Stormers black and polished... as a matter of fact just about every box ticked.....if I`m going down I`m going down BIG time. ))

Just read your thread and it sounds very similar

Spoke to the tech guy at LR battersea, and they have hear it before, said LR have issued a fix on the pulley and belts. Its not a recall though so not sure what that means, guess it means some develop the fault, and they fix

Mines having some more work done in jan where they will look at it. Will let you know

There was an old Bulletin on "Chirp on cold start", however it was only applicable to gasoline engines.

Sometimes its the drive pulleys or idler pulley that develope flats spots on them and the belt squeaks as it passes the flat spot.
All manufacturers have had it in the last few years with the new type of drive belt design
Open the bonnet and be really vigurous and wastefull with the talcolm powder tin, all over the belt with as much as you can get on it, Johnsons baby powder is one of the best. Then start the engine and see if it clears.
The talc powder lubricates the belt temporarely curing the noise and proves this is the cause. You don't stop playing because you get old, You get old because you stop playing.
