Re: 99 squealing noise
if the belt is squeaking, for a cheap fix for a little bit, take a peice of lumber crayon (3 bucks at home depot) and run the car and rub it on the ribbed part of the belt, it will stop the noise for a little while. BUt watch your hands!!!!

Re: 99 squealing noise
It is the serpentine belt. I had the same problem just two days ago. I had a leak in intake manifold (or gasket...whatever) and I guess it leaked onto the belt and when they cleaned it, it started to squeak when accelerating. They replaced it and now the squeak is gone. The belt cost $77 CDN for just the belt. They covered the labour under the warranty work for the intake.

Re: 99 squealing noise
If the belt doesn't do it, it could also be the belt tensioner is no longer applying the right amount of resistance. I had to replace that after replacing the belt itself failed to solve the problem, although I had more of a chirp than a squeak.
