WHENEVER IM AT A STOP SOMETHING FROM THE BELT OR PULLEY IS MAKING A SQUEEKING NOISE. ITS COMING FROM WHAT SEEMS TO BE THE COMPRESSOR. IT ALSO ONLY MAKES THE NOISE AFTER THE CAR HAS BEEN RUNNING FOR A FEW MINUTES. ANY IDEAS?

it's probably a belt or an idler/tensioner pulley. Try squirting a little water from a bottle on the belt. Use as little as possible. If the squeal stops for a while, replace the belt and clean the grooves on the pulleys.Otherwise you have a pulley/compressor concern. Give me a call if you need some help. 262 993 6605 Marv Z:) :)

yea thanx man. After i posted that the noise went away. It got pretty damp out so i think thats why it stoped. i just need to pull the belt off like u said and clean it up.
thanx for the help

I had the same symptoms, squeel came and went but finally came back and stayed. I had the belt changed and it went away. I have underdrive pullys and that seems to shorten belt life.
