    My chirping/squealing turned out to be the tensioner pulley that decided to sieze up, and then the belt burnt a hole in my power steering pump resivor. It was rusted so bad that the bearing reatainer thingy was deteriorated. But this happened a couple months after that noise went away. Ended up being a nice 2 mile walk, because I forgot my cell phone..... and am a moron because I forgot about OnStar thats on the vehicle ....... live and learn I guess.

    Just take an old piece of 1" hosing or something and use a sort of "stethescope" and listen to each pulley while its running. Just be careful of the belt....
    Its just a car.......with rust and dreams for the future!!!!

    well it was doing it before i replaced the pump,, then got twice as bad when i put it all back on, my usual mechanic said it was the belt because one of the sides was worn down before i replaced the pump
