I knew it cuz when i visited LA and took a couple of buses I heard that noise. I had a good feeling it was a belt because i worked on cars a sometimes the belt sounds like that but its not a good thing.Never knew about the fan clutch engage.
Yeah I finally heard the New Flyers doing the same belt squealing thing recently, and it seems a lot of the Neoplans don't squeal anymore, I found out they are doing scheduled maintenance on some of the Neoplans.
The reason the belts make a lot of noise is because the fan clutch engaged. The Reason I know this is because i used to to be a mechanic for the LACMTA Div 5, 7, And 10
"These Neoplans in LACMTA are the only busses I've ever ridden with belt squealing, and I've been on a lot of busses!"
What I was trying to show with this recording of the New Flyer is that the Neoplans aren't the only ones with the belts going screech in the LACMTA fleet.
I would like that sound recording of 5311.

As for your question, read the comments by Theangrytruckdriver.
Secondly, this is a C40HF. Read the comments between me and Javonds at the top.

If this is a neoplan then why is there a picture of a C40?

Because of this (and I quote you):
"These Neoplans in LACMTA are the only busses I've ever ridden with belt squealing, and I've been on a lot of busses!"
What I was trying to show with this recording of the New Flyer is that the Neoplans aren't the only ones with the belts going screech in the LACMTA fleet.
