I have annoying constant squealing belt that I cant really trace. Is there any typical belt on the Vits that do this?

thanks in anticipation

V belts usually, however some water pumps can also squeal when they are on the way out...

Have you checked belt tension?

start it up and squirt a bit of wd40 at the ac pulley and if it doesnt shut up at the alternator then you know which belt is stuffed

then replace em both anyway, its always the back one will fail if the front is new

Just replace both, they're cheap as chips anyway.

good advice, ill let you guys how i go. hopefully it isnt the timing belt though

timing belt wont squeal, but if you dont know how old it is replace it, cheaper than a new head or engine
