Squeak from the engine

[Mica_02_P5]

I started to hear a squealling squeaky sound coming from what sounds like the belt on the left side of the engine.

Anybody know if this is a problem with the belt or something around that area. I really dont know what it might be from but when I am at high RPMs its gone. Its mostly when I am in 1st or 2nd gear.

Thanks.

I get this too sometimes. Doesn't sound like a belt to me.

if you spray a little moisture displacing stuff on the belt such as WD-40(thats what its called here) and the squealing stops, then its your belt. Mine does it just as you were describing and is much worse when its raining or there is mosture in the air. Belt may need more tension or need replacing.

Thanks guys, it sounds as if the squeak is gone now, its been fairly dry here for the last couple days and I havent heard it since it was raining.
