Changed my belts today, not the timing though didn't get around to that, just the alternator and the ac/ps belts and theres a squeel when I do sharp turns at low speeds (like those you make in your driveway) I'm assuming I just need to tighten the ps belt but I guess I'd like a confirmation.
 
My new belts do the same thing when cold but this stops once the car warms up.

You will need to really tighten them up if you wan this to not happen. At least that has been my experience.

I tightened the ps belt that did the trick. It was only when I was cranking the wheel all the way around in my driveway. Thanks for the tip though Defiant.
