squealing when i hit the ignition from a cold start
hi, recently acquired auto, 1.4 16v, petrol Polo match makes a loud squealing noise when i start the engine, usually happens in the morning. It seems to be coming from the timing belt area. Please advise on what it is and how to get rid of it. Link to the video: https://youtu.be/oTp8m3FFh4g

Pick up a new one from your local vw dealer or GSF/Euro Car Parts or similar - under a tenner normally.
