I have a 92 honda accord with 213,000 miles on it and recently had the timing belt and tensioner replaced about 4 months ago. For about two weeks now I hear a squeking sound everytime I start the car, then is goes away. Should I have the repair shop who replaced the timing belt check it out?

was it making the noise before? i would take it back for sure. it could be wrong belt, wrong tention or they may have got oil on one of the pullies. also check the power steering fluid.

When they put the other belts back on they tensioned them they may have not set the tension correctly on the power steering or the alternator. Try belt dressing on them to see if that stops it and if it does adjust the belt tension.
