Anybody any idea why my A/C is squeaky? If I turn off A/C it stops and blowers are fine, only when I activate A/C.

Contamination on the belt probably

Could be the belt on the way out, the air con does put quite a bit of loading on the belt. If not that, then you could be looking at the compressor itself.

It's squeaky inside the car coming from the vents, can't figure it out.

What type of squeak? repetative, like a fan rubbing? or just when you press the button?

I had similar with an Astra, it was the internal fan squeaking which I assumed began when the chilled air made the plastics cold. It didn't do it in the winter when the air was hot. I found a screw loose on the casing of the fan under the dash. This allowed the casing to emit a squeaking noise when cold and running.
