yup the topic tell's it all, i washed the engin bay once. then the squeeking started. but it is only when i turn on the car, and i turn the steering wheel. that's it.
even when the the car is warm. i've used the prestone belt dressing, and it left. but this week (w/ high humidity down here in the DC area) it came back... do i need to WD-40 the bearings on the pullies? or somthing??? what can i do  thnx in advanced for all of the help. -------------------- |

Sounds like my current car, gotta love Mitsubishis...
 Its most likely the belts, see if it is off the track or loose, thats what usually causes squeaking. If you do change out the belt make sure the pulleys don't have any real big chips in them because that can mess up your belt (one of mine did and it was a PITA for 2 months constantly changing the belts). Maybe its time to get some new belts? When was the last time you changed them? Mileage? |
