  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Has anyone experienced a squeal just after start-up for 10 seconds or so that sounds remarkably like a belt? Dealership service department told me it was perfectly normal fuel injector noise. I'm dubious.
 
Ha. That's a new one to me. Tapping on clicking is what I've seen with injectors.

I agree with Philth. I have never heard a FI "squeal". Usually they just click (can sound like too much clearance with manual tappets).

How did they narrow the sound to injectors?
 
It would be hard to convince me of that being injectors. No such noise from my 4.6l.

I would get a second opinion... Sounds like belt or idler pulley. Just my 2cents

I’m having the same issue, i hear it coming directly from 1 of my injectors. But at the same time I did just change my alternator so I’m not sure. I’m 100% it’s coming from the injector, so confused.
