Mystery Chirp on 2005 SL55

I store my car during the winter months. Upon bringing it out of it's winter slumber this year I now have a chirp coming from engine. It's a very short chirp and I only hear it when I take off from a standing stop as soon as I accelerate. Any ideas?

It's your supercharger belt slipping..

Common on these cars. Look into a Belt Wrap Kit. Shardul on this board has a very good one.

Cheers!

I suspected it may be the bearing in the SC pulley, but belt slippage makes more sense. Thanks for help PoCoAMG.
