I just bought a 2010 GLK last night and tonight i noticed a engine squeak or chirp coming from the belts (i think). Did anyone else have this problem?

Depends on your miles. Shouldn't hear anything with low miles.
On older vehicles I have owned, a spray of WD 40 on both sides of the belt while the engine is idling usually solves this for years. (Assuming no issues with pulleys or tensioners.)

^ Yes, please... By the the way, it's probably one of these. The belt is too loose and it's slipping thus squealing... or its an over tightened belt and the idler pulley is shot!

Hi,
I have same issue on my GLK 350, 2012 with 28 miles on it. By any chance do you remember what was the issue? Thanks.
