   Hello
   
   Started my car up about 30 minutes ago (havent driven it since yesterday at 4pm), there was a load squeel noise for about 10 seconds, until i drove away.
   
   I have had a new cambelt only about 7000 miles ago, and a new alternator within the last year.
   
   The noise does sound like the typical 'cam belt' screaming noise, im just wondering if this is a possibility, or could it be something else?
   
   I did do a search on the forum but i keep getting an error message saying this page could not be found
   
   Anyway cheers for any help in advance!
   
   PS 2001 1.5 Diesel if that makes any difference
