Default LOUD Squeaking

Okay I have read through related posts and can't quite pinpoint the squeaking I am getting. It normally occurs within the first mile of driving in 3rd or 4th gear and after the car has been at rest for about an hour. It goes away after that as though it worked itself out. It is extremely loud and has me worried. Seems it needs to warm up after driving for several minutes before it goes away.

I want to say it sounds like a belt, but it seems to come from all directions, especially when driving by a building the sound echo is horrible. I cringe everytime I hear it but it only happens for a few seconds before it 'warms up' and goes away.

Sounds like a loose belt to me. Check the adjuster.
