Fan belt noise..... Please help

Alright my car fan belt have been having a squeezing noise forever. I have been changing my belt like 2 times already. At first the no ice was gone, then after I driven the car a bit hard the noice seems to come back then it got worse, do I guy think it's the pulley or something? That noise is so damm annoying.

sure you didn't get oil on it or it's not loose/too tight?

ooooooooohhh alright lol, honestly sometimes its just a matter of sitting out the noise...in my old E46 after a cold night the belt would do this high pitched whine that made me wanna drive the car into a lake.... but after it warmed up a bit it went away.

it got to the point where it would do it when it didnt even get that cold. took it to the dealer and it turned out some plastic piece that had nothing to do with the belt was missing (probably from me going through the bumps on campus at 30 mph -____- ) they replaced that part and never heard that noise again.

try a can of those "belt dressing", sometimes it helps take care of squeaky noises, the down size of using it is, those thing could make an ugly dirty mess in your engine bay, esp if your pulley/belt have dirt on it, the solution from the belt dressing will mix it up with the dirt and when the belt spin, swung the dirt every where.

Just took the car to the dealer today and they said that it was an oil leak, so yeah the oil basically touch the belt that's why it has that noise. Thank you guys for trying to help me i hope my car would run perfectly after this thing is fix and my warranty is about to run out too shit!

Well cuz I live quiet far from the dealer so I decided to do it on my own, I didn't know there was an oil leak that's why. Is this anything serious you think? They do not know where the oil is leaking so had to drop off my car for a few days hope everything will be fine.
