There are a lot of home remedies like this, bar soap, dish soap. I have had good luck with some light grit sandpaper and a wire brush and cleaning grooves of belt. As belts age they glaze and get dirty from age and use. knocking that surface down usually cleans them up.

Will it go away I know its the dressing but did I use the wrong one???

Sorry to hear that. I'm afraid I can't say for sure. All I can say is the handful of times I've ever sprayed any sort of dressing on my belts it has always made them squeal worse. I've never tried to just apply some before squealing started as a precaution. I'd recommend trying to dry it out with the powder like I've done here. Let us know what you end up finding that works! Good luck!

It’s hard to say. Could be a number of things I suppose. Best solution I can say is to get Original Equipment Manufacturer belts from your dealer. I found that the grooves on my aftermarket belts were not as deep, so they didn’t settle into the grooved pulleys as well which resulted in not as good of grip all around.

Use a temperature gun with the little laser and after running the car for a while open it up and point the laser at the pulleys. Any pully that has higher temperature than the rest probably needs to be checked or replaced. You'll see a 20-30 degrees difference that's your bad pulley right there guaranteed 6:21
