How do I fixa squeaky fan belt?
We put new fan belt on about 10 months ago, a month after we put the new one on t started squeaking. We have tried cleaning it, putting belt dressing and loosening the tension. It is shiny but not cracked.

Now that you put dressing on it, you have no choice but to change it. Once they get contaminated, it never clears up. You need to replace the belt and clean all the pulleys while it's off. Make sure there is no coolant leaking anywhere because if you get coolant on the belt, you will be changing it again.
