My car is a 1999 Chrysler Sebring Coupe 2.5 L V6. Almost every time I start my car (especially when it's cold), it makes the horrible squealing noise. It gets even worse whenever I press on the accelerator. I noticed the noise will decrease or stop altogether if I don't run any heat or defrost. Eventually it will stop after the car has had a chance to run a little bit.
This morning I started my car and let it warm up. It didn't make the noise, but when I reversed then put it in drive, my car just died. I was able to restart it, but the squealing sound had returned and became worse with acceleration.
Someone told me it might be a belt. Could it be the timing belt??? Any help would be great.
