Yep, prolly definitely from teh front of the engine area... and if it is, then its probably: serpentine, idler pulley, bearings going bad, or something all the way up to water pump, A/C clutch, or any number of things.


BUT, if it just happens right on first start, then that probably means its just moisture on your belt.. Might be about time to upgrade to a Gatorback
