I think this may be related to the power steering pump, but before I make the purchase of a new one it would be good to get some expert ideas. 1990 740gl, 305,000 - belts replaced about 5,000 miles ago. Now, upon starting there is a horrible ear-piercing screech from front, occasionally a less shrill noise when down-shifting. The noise disappears within a minute or two....
I tried to isolate it by starting the car and running to the front and best I can tell it's coming from the powersteering or water pump area (which was replaced about 70,000 miles ago).
Thanks to all for sharing their stories---always very enlightening and often times amusing!
