I'd be suspicious of the serpentine belt tensioner. Also, as others have said, the ac belt is a huge pita. Removing and reinstalling the existing belt is very easy as it has already been stretched. If you're trying to eliminate the ac belt as the source of your squealing, just roll the old one off and see if the squeal goes away. As for the serpentine belt and tensioner, replacement couldn't be easier. Once you round up the tools, it's a 15 minute job.

How many miles do you have on your car, kropscamaro? Just wondering what the typical lifespan is for the tensioner.

I'm right behind you at 25k, think I'll pick up a tensioner to complement the full set of extra belts that I carry to track days.

Yeah, the ac and serpentine belts don't seem to like getting spun to 7000 rpm all that well. I had both belts, on separate occasions, shread themselves and fly off.

$150 wow $20 belt and about 10 min to install including putting car on lift. There is a $9 tool that makes install easy.
