Squealing sound from under the hood
Whether its when I start my car, drive it all day or in between, I can hear a pretty loud squealing sound coming from the engine. Someone told me it was my serpentine belt? I'm not exactly sure. Any ideas and cost for replacement would be helpful, thanks!

Either the belt, tensioner or simply needs to be adjusted. Even though our tensioners are spring loaded/self adjusting they get stuck sometimes. I had the same squealing and my belt looked good still. They just needed to adjust the belt and free up the tensioner a bit. Good luck

For what it's worth - you can get *just* the tensioner pulley if you don't want to pay $100+ for the full tensioner. It comes with a new bearing pressed in. Simple bolt-on affair. Took me 10 minutes to change my belt and tensioner pulley - and that was with a 5 minute **** break.
