Squeal comes from under hood only when temperatures are under 20 / goes away warm?
There is a shrill squealing that comes from under the hood when I start the car up in the extreme cold (under 20/25). It shrills for about 5-7 minutes, and then goes away, never to be seen again even on cold starts, unless it drops that cold again.
My guess is that its probably the bearings in one of the pulleys, and that its no big deal for now. (although its likely to get worse).
Its loud and obnoxious enough to hear inside my house though when I use the remote start.
Belts in good shape.

Thanks everyone for their ideas.
Thats what I was initially thinking, so I think I'll go with the idler pulley. The belt could make a similar sound, but It shouldnt be nearly as temperature sensative as a bearing. Found replacements under $20 new, so I'll swap that out and see if it fixes it!
Thanks!
Thanks!
