Potential problems with my new Falcon

[freebiarn]

Hi all hows it going!

I just bought a (new to me) 2000 model AUII falcon ute, XL sports edition. It is a great looking ute, drives well and all seems fine, except that sometimes which I am going from a standstill into first gear the car makes a kind of noise like the fan belt is slipping or similar such noise.

I am wondering has anyone encountered such an issue, or does anyone have a clue what this could be? Is it worth worrying about? I am inclined to think its related to the gearbox but I'm no mechanic.

Cheers for all your input!

Andy
