my car has a real bad belt squeal belts the belt isnt even a year old and all the bearings in the pulleys are brand new any clue as to what it could be
 


new belt or old belt???

old belt, try replacing it

new belt, possibly a pulley bearing about to go out, or a tensioner isnt hold tension and the belt is too loose
 
Check the belt tension... if its not nice and tight it could be the tensioner. Otherwise youll need to get a tech or someone with a mechanics stethoscope to listen for where the squeal is actually coming from, because at that point its just a guessing game
 
ok so i took it to the shop about to weeks ago and they said it was power steering fluid leaking on the belt they said they fixed it but its started back up again just as loud as before can anyone tell me what i could do to fix this

If you paid for a "they fixed it", and you leave but its still doing it... TAKE IT BACK, cuz they didn't "fix it" :th_thumbsup-wink:
