Belt Chirping http://www.gates.com/brochure.cfm?brochure=1026

Probably the alternator belt. Its either bad or loose. See if its tightened enough first, if not then i'd replace it..belts aren't too expensive anyways..25-30 is the max I've personally seen them..oh btw

i'll check out the site. before, it was squealing really loud, even when the car is not in motion. so i spray the belt with some belt cleaning. the squealling is gone, but everytime i try to speed to car up, it started chirping. the more i step on it, the louder the chirp. the thing is the noise stop later when the car i warmed up, but it get really annoying. i had to turn up my stereo so i don't have to hear that shiet.
