roadboy6 0 Posted September 7, 2005 Report Share Posted September 7, 2005 Good day all. For the last couple of weeks I have noticed that I need to start the car up to three times before it stays running when cold. Starts fine when warm and seems to run strong, But today I noticed a loud intermitant squeaking noise coming from the right rear of the car(about the same place as the humming noise that the fuel pump makes on start up). I first thought that it might be a slipping belt, but when I open up the engine bay, I can't hear it under there at all. I can only hear it inside the cockpit. The car still seems to be running good, although I admit I have been driving very gentle since the noise appeared and now I am reluctant to drive at all. I plan on taking it in to be fixed, but would like as much expert knowledge as possible before I have to pay for it. Thanks in advance Brad 89SE B) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks in advance Brad 89SE B) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> cold start problem maybe the idle air control valve. or just set incorrectly. unsure on the squeeking really. there are so many noises that can be found on the esprit dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
