The squeaking needs investigating as it can lead to expensive problems if left. Squirting with WD40 or the like might stop the noise but not the cause! Best to check the condition of the belts first. Signs of cracking bits missing, or any other faults. Which engine have you got? The belts on the G13bb engine are both the same length so 4pk813 will do. The m13a engine uses different sizes. The alternator(fan) belt needs a 4pk 830 belt and the power steering uses a 4pk 850 one. The 4pk describes the belt profile and the number is the length in mm's. Within 5mm is OK of the given length. If your engine is the m13a then the crankshaft pulley can cause problems with the damper portion of it delaminating but it is not always obvious with the engine static. The daughters car started to eat the fan belt and we ended up replacing the pulley. Physically it looked Ok but with rotation must have been elongating allowing the outer portion of the pulley to vary from the path of the inner part of the pulley. Not cheap and can be a saga if you are unlucky!
