    Wondering if its one of the accessories running off the main belt, the pulley squeaking? Eg. alternator or so?

    I also have a similar thing too, except mine usually cannot be heard after driving for a while, but it sounds terrible when coasting or going slow in streets or car parks :(

    I need sometime to diagnose it more, i'll keep watching this thread also.

    Take the belt off and spin every pulley by hand:

    Alternator
    Water Pump
    Power Steering
    Idlers
    Tensioners
    AC

    If you have a coolant leak and its spraying/dripping on the belt it will squeal its head off.
