Once a day, at first cold start up, there is a very loud screech almost as if the starter did not immediately disengage. At first I thought it might be the drive belt tensioner, but I replaced the drive belt and the tensioner seemed OK. It is a 97 Boxster.

Anyone else had this problem or have any ideas on where to start? Again, after the first start, everything is fine for the rest of the day.

Thanks.
