Default Squeal while turning

Hi all.

I've noticed something recently, whenever I start my car in the morning and go out, for the first minute or 2, when I turn left, I can hear a high pitched squeal of some kind, its not loud, and its only from the left side of the car, I haven't noticed it while turning right.
After a few mins, I won't hear it again.

Any ideas what it could be?

Sounds like it could be the Power Steering belt that needs replacing.

I assume your talking about the aux belt?
That on the right side, (drivers side) how ever you look at it.
The sound is coming from the passenger side, and it seems like it is low down, but I don't know.
