      radiator fan belt slip. more common during rainy days, but some buses with worn fan belts will experience such slips. most common on Volvo B10M Mark III and some Mark IV's.

    • It used to be worse…. now they change the belts regularly. If it’s raining then no choice, water bound to get into the engine cover and radiator belt when water from the puddle splashes upwards.

      It is a problem confined to Volvo B10M’s. If SMRTB bought B10M’s they will face the same problem. SMRTB have their own share of problems also.

    • but nobody seems to be affected except it when i looked around. The screeching is hurtful to my earful as in irritating and uncomfortable.
