The other day I drove my car for the first time in about a week. I noticed a squeeling sound under the hood but figured it was just a wet belt since I had cleaned the engine. Well it didnt go away so I took it to the dealer today and because of the hloidays they cant dig into it until tuesday but did tell me what it probably is. Alternator, water pump, or some tensioner. The car only has 40,000 miles on it, this couldnt have happened say 4,000 miles ago. They told me it would cost 100 to 500 dollars to have fixed. Looks like I shoulda asked for an alternator or water pump for christmas. The car has been trouble free up until now, I hope this isn't a sign of things to come.
