Squealing sound when ac is turned on at low rpms (01 Civic LX)
I'm not sure what is causing the squealing, but as soon as I turn my AC on and my car is running at low rpm's the car will squeal unless I am in 4th or 5th gear at higher rpm's. What I find wierd is that when I press the clutch in the squealing noise goes away, but if I release the clutch at a low RPM the squealing will continue. Also their is a wierd burn smell kinda like burning rubber or like a vacuum cleaner being burned out kinda smell for a few seconds and it goes away. Does anyone know what could cause this or what the problem is? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Maybe your belt is loose?
That happened to me, all I had to do was tighten up the belt then it was all good.
