#1: Annoying squeak!! Author: danlouiee, Location: Plymouth, DevonPosted: Fri Dec 30, 2011 7:22 pm ---- Tonight I lft the misses house about 11 and drove about a mile to the petrol station before I came home. On cold damp mornings my car has been making squealing noises on light acceleration, like it's wet until its warmed up and dried..but it did it almost all the way to the petrol station tonight until I filled up started the engine again, it sounded like it slipped and then it was fine? Any suggestions?!
I've done a search but I didn't know if anyone else was getting this problem with the winter weather and found a solution?

Maybe an aux belt slipping??
How do you mean its wet until its warmed up?
You say its slipped...whats slipped.
Where is the squeak coming from??

It's coming from under the bonnet I know that but by the time I've started it popped the bonnet to have a gander it's gone!:(

#5: Re: Annoying squeak!! Author: -Dave-, Location: North ManchesterPosted: Sat Dec 31, 2011 1:40 am ---- Aux belt I would say. Cheap enough to replace so change it and see if problem persists.
#6: Re: Annoying squeak!! Author: AshH, Location: BirminghamPosted: Sat Dec 31, 2011 5:02 am ---- What they all said Aux belt is slipping!!!
#7: Re: Annoying squeak!! Author: gixxerkev, Location: wiltshirePosted: Sat Dec 31, 2011 5:41 am ---- If its the Aux belt slipping that would mean the tensioner is on its way out and needs replacing, the squeak could also be the tensioner bearing seizing up. Get it replaced soonest because if the belt snaps or comes off you'll have no alternator, air-con or power steering.

#11: Re: Annoying squeak!! Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Sat Dec 31, 2011 6:07 am ---- im not sure lol. I've been going to him for a while to the point where everytime I turn up he immediately asks "Whats up with it now?!?"
#12: Re: Annoying squeak!! Author: Razor34, Location: CroydonPosted: Sat Dec 31, 2011 6:16 am ---- LOL I'm new to Peugeot but now learning very quickly how much they cost
#13: Re: Annoying squeak!! Author: gixxerkev, Location: wiltshirePosted: Sat Dec 31, 2011 7:11 am ---- Yep they're expensive for a little car, I used to think my Alfa 156 was expensive until I got a 206, seem to be spending all the time lol !!!!

Only if you buy a bad one

If you drive and maintain your car regularly most things will be simple wear and tear. Had mine over a year now and apart from clutch and aux belt nothing has gone wrong as it was looked after before I got it and still is.
