3v Triton 5.4 squeaks after carwash.tips??
I live in Anchorage,Alaska and every time I take my truck to the automatic carwash my motor squeaks for up to 3 days. Any tips, TSB's??? I could see my motor from the tire wells, you think the almighty Ford would have sealed the engine compartment more especially on a Fx4

Is it your serpuntine belt (main accessory belt) that is squeeling? Try some belt dressing on it.
mine started squeeling on me pretty bad. It wasn't from car washes either. I tried belt dressing and it didn't help. So I took it to the dealer and put a new belt on under warranty, and no more squeels!
