Default Squealing sound

Hey all,
I got this problem that started today. While driving I hear this squealing noise. I at first thought it was the belt, but looking at it with motor open and rev from motor bay its not the belt. Ive also noticed that sometiems when you get on it, it will studder. Just sometimes, its like the tc is on but its not. Any ideas to what I should be looking for? Thanks
Oh yea I got a 02 gt.

It could be the throwout bearing. Try pressing the pedal inand see if its still squealing. Thats where mine was coming from

if you put the car in neutral and coast at like 45, 50mph does it still make the noise? if so , it may be a bad wheel bearing.

Mine was squealing bad right before my starter went out, replaced that and no more squeal. Plus the studder thing sounds like it could be your COPs. I had that same issue also, and that is what fixed that. Good luck

look under the tensioner and see if any bearing grease has come out.

No its from the motor. It kinda sounds like its in the alt area.
