What can I do to stop the screech that happens after I turn on my car?

Asked by GabbyML May 08, 2020 at 10:36 PM about the 1991 Toyota Camry DX

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My car is a 1991 Toyota Camry Dx. It has just
started to make this loud, screeching noise after I
turn on my car. The car is pretty old and worn
down, and we’ve had to make numerous repairs on
it so many new parts used to replace the old. Any
idea what it could be?? Thank you.

What Engine in this vehicle? Any warning lights on or flashing when the engine is running? Sounds like the Engine Drive Belt and or belt Tensioner may need to be replaced. Try this. Put some water in a discarded squirt bottle. Squirt the drive belts with water. Restart the engine and see if the noise changes or goes away. Get back with results.

My 2000 v6 toyota camry turns on but just for a second and goes off right after it goes on. Only when is hot. In the mornings generally it turns on fine for like 15 minutes. Some said to check the fuel pump, and alternator, but they are fine, i think it has to do with the plastic connectors that go in to the camshaft position sensor that are falling apart for so much heat on the sidesn and an electritian man did a new one just the ends so it would connect the sensor tightly, but is going off when the car is on after 15 minutes or so. What should i do? replace the sensor? i can´t find the original connectors 2 Answers
