My C7 makes a chirping / ticking noise when it is started cold. When warm, the noise mostly goes away.

It has NPP exhaust if that matters.

Any ideas what it might be?

Thanks.

I would take a look at the belt tensioner you might see oil leaking if it is going bad.

The chirp could be the belt sipping as you start the car, take it to the dealer to have them look at it if you are unfamiliar with cars.

This was my tensioner before it was replaced...the first time.

That kinda sounds like it could be the noise. I will look into it.
Thanks a lot
