squeaky noise

Topic starter

My 2008 Hyndai Elantra with 140,000 miles has a squeaking noise when you start the car up.( usually after it has been sitting for a while).  It continues for just a short time (15 seconds or so) when initially starting out.  Then it stops when the car warms up.  I have had all belts replaced twice (a.c., v-belts, etc...) in 3 months but the noise still persists.  What could it be? Could it be the alternator?

thank you,

Tom

Check the pulleys of any driven component - ac, water pump, alternator, idler pulley, tensioner pulley, ps,  etc.  It sounds like a bearing is going out.
