Hi all, it's been a while since I've been on here for many reasons. But, I'm needing some help with the engine and need to know if anyone has had experience with my problem.
Currently I have a problem with an '06 4.0L I6 engine squeal when I start up the engine and I'm assuming it is really cold out. The squeal sounds like it is coming from under the valve cover just behind the oil fill. It started after I drove it to St. Louis last week Thursday and then it sat out a cold night (normally it stays in a garage). I drove it back on Friday on the way back it made the noise about 5 miles from my parent's house but, stopped after a couple of minutes while I was trying to pull to the side of the road and then trouble shoot where it was. It did it again on Sat. morning for a few seconds and then stopped, and on Sunday and Monday it drove fine with no noise. I just got in it this afternoon and it made the noise long enough for me to pinpoint the area. I've checked the oil level which was ok and it was just changed right before the trip. The oil I use is royal purple and I use what it says to use in the book, 10W-30.
So, has anyone had this happen?
And do you know what this problem might be?
Thanks,
Tom
