The most likely cause of a squeal as you described is the serpentine belt slipping on a pulley. The best way to find the pulley in question is to fire up the car when the engine is fully cooled, then do whatever it takes to make the squeal happen. I.E., if you turn the wheels. Then, after the squeal has happened for about 5 to 10 seconds, turn off the engine and quickly place your hand on all the separate pulleys. The warmest one is your culprit. If it's the alternator, replace it. If it's an idler pulley or the tensioner pulley, you may only need to replace the bearing, not the assembly. Good luck. Gene W. iATN Sponsor.
