Sounds like: 1) a loose or worn belt 2) a loose or worn belt tensioner or...... 3) one of the belt driven accessories has a problem..... i.e. the a/c compressor, water pump, power steering pump, alternator. Take it to someone who is qualified to diagnose and/or repair it. It will be less costly to do the repairs now that when something major happens!

i visit't know for particular what the priority is yet I actually have a exceedingly sturdy idea. maximum squealing noises are from a free belt. i don't know your type of motorcar yet maximum cutting-aspect autos have a serpentine belt. This belt wraps round pulleys and it makes use of the potential off the major crank shaft to potential the alternator, water pump, potential brakes, potential steerage and air conditioner. likely that's both worn or basically possibly free. that's going to no longer be free because they comprise an computerized pressure gadget. i'm truly at a loss to describe WHY it will be squealing considering that they at the prompt are designed to reduce this issue. per chance between the instruments it powers has malfunctioned and could no longer turn suited. listed decrease than are some inquiries to target to discover the priority. You for sure suggested it squeals more beneficial once you step on the gas peddle. So does it also squeal more beneficial below different situations? Like once you turn? Or at the same time as the air conditioner is off? have you ever tried this with the air conditioner off? base line is you want to take it to a service station in case you at the prompt are not robotically prone.

Could be the "V" belt is not tight enough, or could be the water pump. Take it to any garage to have them look.
