Re: LOUD Squeel/HISS, when starting car in Cold
Take the serp belt off and try it. If the noise doens't occur, then it's a belt driven accessory/pulley making the noise. If it's still there, it's hard to diagnose without hearing it. You'll have to try to narrow it down to what area the sound is coming from.

Re: LOUD Squeel/HISS, when starting car in Cold
Most likely it's your starter staying engaged in the flywheel after the engine starts. This causes the starter drive to spin too rapidly, causing the squealing noise. I believe a new starter is in order.
