I have a chirp from the engine bay when cold, and usually disappears when warned up.

Spray some water on the belt and if the noise goes away it's the belt and not an imminent problem. If the noise persists then it could be a bearing which you need to sort ASAP as it can fail and it will take out the belt. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |

mine (2012 4.4TDV8) chirps when cold - most years it goes away in spring but this year it still happens a bit, especially on cooler days. I have had the belt tensioner mod done too. 2012 L322 4.4 TDV8 AB low mileage - a peach

I wasn't aware of a 'mod' either and thought it was just replace when it's worn or belt is running off the edge. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |
