I have a grinding noise on start up, quite loud for 3 to 5 minutes then quiets down.Can you give me any advice please.

Hi there,
It sounds like that a drive belt could be the cause of the noise, we recommend you take the vehicle to a service centre in your area to be checked out.

Suzuki is chain driven

Yes it is, but still has rubber drive belts that operate the air conditioning and charging systems. They can make a racket at times.
