Sometimes when i first start up there is a sound like a cricket or hamster on a tread mill coming from the dash or engine area.
Almost like a dry bearing.
New alternator belt has made no difference.
Could it just be the fan motor?
I'm sure i switched that off and noise still there.

Does it change with engine speed?
Could be a leaf caught in the interior blower? Maybe try changing fan speed?

Anything like my wife's car, it could be a parking ticked in the air vent for the windscreen
