Why when its cold outside your car squeals when you start it?
Alexedenton87
Depending on the sound, it could be a slipping belt or a worn pulley bearing.
A slipping belt is typically caused by a belt that needs adjustment or by a weak idler spring.
A worn pulley bearing can be any of a number of things, the bearing on an alternator, an idler pulley bearing... who knows until you get into it.
Also, sometimes a worn heater motor will make a terrible noise when it's cold, as can a radiator fan motor.

What does Cold blooded car mean?
Im a sixteen year old guy who has a cold blooded car and it means when it is cold out side and i mean cold like gotta wear a jacket or something. When you start your car it will idle okay sometimes but will die if you dont pump on the gas. If its cold outside the engine is cold so if you want to just hop in the car and put it in drive you just cant b/c the car will die b/c the engine is to cold and the car will shut off on you. So you got to let the engine worm up before you can drive. Mostly happens with older cars
