Best Answer

This is almost always caused by worn drive belts. Replace all the belts at the same time. If it has a serpentine belt, then replace it. Be sure and check the idler pulley to make sure the squeak is not coming from the idler pulley itself. Another possibility is a bad alternator, water pump, or Power Steering pump. Check them all.

What makes a new serpentine belt squeak?

OK well my discovery of why a new serpentine belt squeaks is if some one does not tighten a screw or place the belt on all of the pulleys correctly then it squeals. also a highly recommended thing i found that worked on my 1994 jeep wrangler was a spray called belt conditioner it helps tremendously, and make sure that the belt is on all the pulleys correctly.
