Year: 1996
Make: Toyota
Model: Corolla
Engine: Don't know
Mileage: 100,000

Gosh, let me see if I can describe it or think what the sound reminds me of...

It's fairly high-pitched.
It's kind of squealy.
It sounds like the sound is going in circles rather than straight, if that makes any sense.

It seems to happen most when I start out from parked, but I think it can happen at other times, too.
Any idea what this could be?

Welcome: From that so far I would check or have checked the serpentine belt and while off the pulleys on the engine. Engine size should be listed underhood on a decal so far not important to the noise for the most part,
