Thanks for the replies.

Would the serpentine belt make a similar squeal sound as most belts do when they get old? The sound I'm hearing is not that higher pitch squeal you typically hear from a bad belt. It's much more of a crunching screech. Like I said, if you've ever not realized a car was running and turned the key, it sounds more like that. A crunchy screech, more than a higher pitch squeal.

If it is the belt, could it have gotten bad/dry just from the 8 yrs of exposure? I ask because the car only has 62k miles on it.
