1996 Mitsubishi Outlander loud noise in the engine bay

Maria’s question:

” We have a 1996 Mitsubishi Outlander and it was running good til lately it is making a loud noise like screeching when you start it but it will go away as soon as I drive the car I wonder what is wrong with it.”

Answer:

You probably just have a worn, loose fan belt. Have the fan belts checked. Tighten them up if they are loose, and replace any that are cracked and worn. Also have the water pump and alternator checked, because if their bearings get worn, it will make the fan belts get loose and screech. BUT, normally it’s just a loose or worn fan belt.
