Default High pitch wining noise

Hi
I am getting a high pitch wining noise when my engine starts.

It goes away in about 5 mins

Any thoughts?

Thanks

not sure if the B6 platform have it, but the B5 has the (S)econdary (A)ir (I)ntake that kicks on during cold starts. They tend to start sounding like a vacuum as they wear out....

Thanks very much.

Also there is no power getting to my air conditioning compressor.
Could this be related to the wining noise?

does it happen in the colder months usuallly? Cold winter mornings?

its one of your belts. I think its the tensioner or the serpentine.

What km at and have you done timing belt yet?
