Default Start Car, screeching sound....?

when i start my car, i get a high pitched screeching sound that seems to be in line with the timing belt and i sometimes get that screech when i shift gears, i am doing the minime and puttting on a new timing belt, do you think that is the problem?

Could just be that you have loose belts. Check on that and let us know.

If your timing belt is slipping, you got more problems than you think. Probably your a/c or power streering belts. A little belt dressing will work fine, no wd-40 please.
