    V-Belts squeel

    My belts squeel like a pig. After the temp bar is risen a bit from stone cold, and then all the way until optimal driving temp. My belts have about 7k miles on them, and they are tight enough. Is there any oil that will quiet them down, but not make them slip?

    It could be your alternator bushings....

        The alternator was replaced last year...I went to autozone and used the same core. So would the bushings have been replaced?
