If you can't diagnose the sound yourself it is probably best to take it to a shop. Obviously hard for forum members to diagnose not being able to hear it. That being said, squeals are often belt related. It could be the serpentine belt needing replacement or a pulley that is not spinning freely.

Then again, could be something else altogether.
