    squealing when pulling away in first

    My car has done this a few times before but is doing it a fair bit today for some reason. The best way to describe it is a squealing noise when pulling away in first gear (like 2 metal plates rubbing together for 1 second). It does it no other time and is intermittent. My first thoughts are...

    Thermostat.

    Almost all of my cars have had the temperature gauge sit pretty much exactly in the middle when warm apart from my old Alfa 156 which moved about as it was a live reading and not an average. In the Accord the gauge sits just before half way which is making me think the thermostat is faulty and...
