That is definitely the noise! Mine doesn't last that long yet, fortunately. I have an appointment at Sears tomorrow and I will be asking them to replace whatever belt they used with a higher quality - a Gates - based on that recommendation above, as well as tighten it.

Going forward, I will "slowly" start the car, like he does in this video. I'll update after my appointment and a couple of days of seeing how the changes go.

Thank you all so much for your input!
