I got a 99 Tracker With a 2.0 and a auto 4 wheel drive. On cold starts it sounds like plastic hitting but after that you can start it up all you want with nothing no noise. Just replaced the drive belt and the cute little fan belt. Does anyone know what the noise is on cold starts it sounds like it is coming from the fan. Let me know if you have any ideas. Thanks

The 2L has a timing chain rather than a belt... check the tension. They do normally make some noise until warm up, but it shouldn't be excessive.

As in the chains (plural) making noise?  Not at all - in fact timing chain noise at startup is not a good sign.

The early V6 engines in the Suzuki GrandVitara are known for timing chain issues, later ones have had a redesigned tensioner that cures the problem, but the I4 engines have never had this problem, so if you have a 2.0 I4 with a noisy chain at startup, you need to get it looked at.

Start by changing the oil to a 10w30 if you're not already using it and see if that helps.

I really do not think it is a timing chain issue the Tracker has 46000 miles on it. I think it might be the clutch fan going out.
