Re: Serpentine belt noise problems - potential fix

The material is called belt pilings and is one of the most common causes of belt squeaks. Like RahX said, always clean the pulleys when you replace your belts. Wire brush, pocket screwdriver, etc. Some brake cleaner and compressed air help. If it is a GM product make sure the power steering pulley is flush with the pump shaft.
