Check for a serious exhaust leak if this sound occurs on rapid acceletation.

Squealing also occurs in Power Steering if it is low on fluid and you are cornering. Another squeal is a slipping fan belt ... get it checked out soon as it will only get worse and probably cost more later for repairs than for a simpler repair right now.

How do you know when alternator is going bad?

some times it will sqeal, but most of the time the battery will not stay charged.... take your car to a discount parts dealer that will check your "alternator output" for FREE!!!! most places that sell alt. will check them for free, just drive car there and they will come out and test it while it is in the car. you do not have to remove it from your car!!!!! also you can disconnect battery while car is running ...and if the car turns off or runs poorly after disconnecting battery, then that means the alternator is going bad. but have it check first before buying new one....GOOD LUCK

How do you cure starter motor squeal when starting?

The sqeal is probably your fan belt on the alternator cos when the engine turns over the alternator needs to be pulled round and the initial inertia causes more power and friction on the belt, solution = tighten belt or put a small amount of release oil on pulley(not recommended due to fire risk) or change belt. The starter motor is connected to the engine by a gear if this is the source then expert help is needed.
