when engine starts cold there is a loud screeching sound for about four or five seconds, then the screeching sound stops. the car starts up and runs fine.
when engine starts warm there is either no screeching sound or a loud screeching for one or two seconds. the car starts up and runs fine.
this started two days ago.
three weeks ago I had a 40-point inspection done on the car, that included a battery test:
VOLTS 12.17v
MEASURED 384cca
RATING 600cca
Battery Type: regular
Battery Location: in vehicle
Could the battery "MEASURED at 384cca" have anything to do with the screeching sound, or is the battery an unrelated issue?
any and all assistance is greatly appreciated.
