Fixed engine squeel

For the first three minutes my 2008 CS2 (80k miles) would produce a faint squeak/squeal sound from the engine area. After too many other attempted "fixes", including belt changes, I finally solved it. It turned out to be drive belt rubber built up on the AC and Power Steering pulleys. Before changing to a new drive belt, I cleaned off all the pulleys with super fine sand paper (using a rubber wheel attached to a drill to spin the pulley while holding sandpaper in the belt groove). Problem solved. That was six months ago and has sounded perfect ever since.
