Nissan Pathfinder SE, 1997, 120000, V6 is now sounding like I'm killing a bird when my car gets warmed-up. No sounds when I start cold. I've checked the belts and their good. Any clue would be helpful. It is coming from the fan area in front not the rear or brakes.

I would think that it's probably a bearing in one of the rotating accessories...Alternator, air conditioning compressor, etc. or an idler wheel. Normally belt squeal goes away after the vehicle warms up.

Hope that helps.
