Squeak

I had this squeak. I say had because I got rid of it, for the moment, but I think it may come back
At first I thought it was my one of my serpentine belt pulleys. I changed them, along with the belt. The squeak remained. Then, after reading some posts on the board, I decided to replace my crank pulley. The squeak persisted.
Finally, today, I got underneath the car and I found the source: It is the hanger that support the catalytic converter. There is a 16mm bolt on top that was a bit loose. But I couldn't tighten it. So I sprayed some grease inside, and not it moves silently. At the same time, I repositioned the exhaust pipe just south of the cat, and that seemed to tighten things up. The squeak is gone. If it ever returns, I'll spray some more grease. Someday, I may have to change the support for the cat.
