I haven't figured it out, but my car squeeks when it is Park, but not in neutral, and sometimes drive. Does anyone have idea what this would be? Hopefully somethings as simple as new belts. Maaaaaann, that would be great.

Have you ever changed your belts?
If not 36K is a good time to do so. And you may loose the squeak.
Make sure your WP is not leaking. This will cause belts to slip and squeak.
Later now,
Clint

Yeah, I've changed the belt connected to the supercharger when I changed the pulley.
It shredded one of the rows of grips though. The one closest to the supercharger itself.

some people say to change them every so many miles and then others will go by years, but we basically just look at them for cracks or where they might have torn.

So you have changed actual serpentine belt that used by the engine and all the accessories? If not, a quick change should remedy the problem.
Clint is right about the water pump.

Clint is right about the water pump. Well, the other day when I was changing my valve cover, I tried to loosen the tensioner pulley for the serpentine belt, and it wouldn't give. Its the exact same process as loosening the supercharger belt, correct?
