Default Squealing Sound from AC

So the AC is making noise, squealing. So far it only is doing this the first time I turn it on for the day and then squeals for a few min, I turn it off and on and go easy on the gas then no more sound out of it for the day. Next day same thing happens all over again.


Would this be a belt issue or perhaps the clutch is going bad or needs adjustments?

Almost certainly a loose belt. Assuming belt is in good condition, tighten just until squealing stops.
