Had my cambelt changed and it makes a loud whyning sound for 10 minutes from cold start. Furthermore, power steering makes a louder than usual sound when turning steering wheel?
Any ideas what i can do?

Are you sure that it is the cam belt and not the dirver belt (fan belt). This usually makes a noise like you are describing. You will find that attached to the altinator.

The fan belt probably isn't tight enough, hence the squealing.
