Had all my belts (timing, alternator, power steering and a/c), and water pump replaced @100k miles. Belts were squealing due to wear before changing them. After about 3 weeks they started squealing again, they were perfectly quiet before. I've tightened the power steering belt (it was a bit loose), and it didn't help at all. I've checked the alternator and a/c belts and they are tight and meet maintenance book specifications.
It only squeals at low RPM- when idling at stop sign/light. Once I get going, the noise is gone. Any ideas? My guess is that it HAS to be a belt, but why all of a sudden after 3 weeks?
