Quick chirp on startup and between gears

[jayjr1105]

6 speed Manual, the Mazda from my sig makes a quick chirp during startup. It's a 2 month old serpentine belt. I can reproduce the issue when dropping the clutch more abruptly than usual. Suspension? Belt? Tensioner?

Check the tension.

which belt brand?

Dayco W gold

 

[GMBoy]

Check the tensioner

I had a squeak with a new serpentine belt. TBH it was when on full steering lock and/or starting from a stop. Tensioner was ok and belt was running straight.
No wobbles. I sprayed a bit of silicone on the belt with the car running. A few weeks later I forgot all about it.

Thanks, I didn't think to remove it and see if it goes away. I can make it happen 10 times out of 10 in reverse if I drop the clutch a bit fast.
