Hi all, I know this question was asked not so long ago but I can't remember the conclusion.

In the mornings (when cold especially) there is a squeeky whistle from one of the belts.

what was this?
what is the solution to shut it the hell up!

any help is much appreciated.

I get this same noise very occasionally and (don't know if it does any harm or not) a light spray of silicone based oil in the direction of the pulleys/ belts seems to help. paperbag

i seem to remember someone said a light spray of WD40 on the belts 1 by 1 to find out which one it is. But after that I draw a blank.

I've got something similar. Wasn't cold by the time I tried to explain this to Andy (Fish). He reckons that it could be a belt tensioning bearing. Must make a point of recording it and putting it up here

It could be either belt or one of 4 pulleys.
