Squeal may be the plastic rubbing on the steering wheel not a normal maintenance thing but find some lithium spray grease in the the same section of the store and spray it on the area where the steering wheel meets the column

Price for timing belt change.
  
Sometimes I see dealers run specials for this service. Id walk in, not drive in and ask about any service special. Of course this dealer has already gave you a price. Im guessing a 4 clyinder is about $200.00 labor plus $55.00 for the part.That's 3 hours tops at $65-$75/hr. A master mechanic specializing on this car will have it done in 30mins.
 
I do my own for the price of a belt from the local parts store which is about $30.00.

To check your evap system it starts in the area behind the gas tank beneath the trunk. A bunch of hoses are there.
 
 I doubt if this area is bad, but another area possibly with a tube off is the VSV next to the MAF flow sensor in the duct from the air filter. The VSV(vacuum switching valve) could have a loose tube, hose. It is to the right of the MAF, and related to the EVAP canister in the trunk area.
 
This is for a 2AZ-FE engine (4 cylinder).the fuse for EFI main is forward right corner of fuse block

When you replace the battery all of the "learned" parameters concerning the optimal operation of the engine and transaxle will be lost and replaced by the original factory default parameters. Engineering "best guess" parameters that only apply to a completely new car as it rolls off the factory floor.
 
Within ~500 miles your engine/transaxle control ECU will have (re)learned, corrected, the parameters in order to again have optimal operation of a well broken in, well worn, '04 with XXX miles accrued.

Column squeak
 
I'd spray anywhere the parts that turn, touch parts that don't turn.l It might be hard to see anything under the dash. The rubbing could be at the steering wheel where it meets the turn signal switches and controls. Go very lightly. Then spray your seat tracks, and window tracks to help them move easier.

These codes are for lean mixture.
 
Remove code and try to see if it resets again. Remove fuse in engine compartment for ten seconds. Its marked EFI. It should be in the forward right corner of the fuse box. Have key in off position.
