Ok so when I turn my A/C on at idle, it will start to squeal. It will squeal faster and louder when I increase the RPMs. It was fine with my A/C off before, but now it's starting to squeal a little bit even with my A/C off. I already tried tightening my belt, but it didn't seem to help. If I turn my A/C on when I am cruising on the highway or anywhere above 3,000RPMs, It will be fine and quiet until my car drops to idle and then I will hear the squealing again. Thoughts? Questions? Comments?

Squeeling is caused by loose tension between the belt and the pulley. Either tighten the belt or if the belt it torn, replace it. If your belt is not torn, just tighten the belt tensioner. If the noise proceeds, use belt dressing.
