Hello..After I start the car aand it runs for about 10 seconds a loud whinning sound is coming from the engine. it also happens when the car is idle but does not whine when you press on the accelerator. Need any advice. Thanks

NO... not the belt
The steering pump is the problem, and when you press the gas paddle you get the steering pump run high and the sound seems to disappear but it actually not. Just running the steering pump higher will make the sound weaker.
