Cold Start Noise - F80
Not exactly able to pinpoint this , it's only upon cold start 30-40 degrees or below with some moisture in the air. I have done some searching and members come up with different issues it seems.
Any feedback would be appreciated Video linked below https://youtube.com/shorts/E_v9GCT3Zvs?feature=share

I saw the vid. Does the squeak frequency match the alternator pulley or the idler pulley?Whichever matches up that's your likely culprit. If it's the idler bearing then it could be greased. If it's the alternator then think about a new one. What sucks is both take about the same work effort.
Is the belt "banjo string" tight? If not then I'd replace the tensioner too.

I took to dealer could not replicate the sound of course videos weren't enough for them. And as it is starting to warm up here in NJ it's not happening as much at all. I will check the serp belt and see if it's banjo string right light you said. If it's not then the dealer should of been able to identify that while the car was in their possession (one would think)

Anytime! I picked up the car with 36k and around 38k it started to happen with mine , if anything I think it could be the idler pulley.

The dealer replaced the entire serpentine belt section idler pulley etc as well. The noise has not returned. I believe it’s a bearing that goes in the idler pulley.
