Belt squeal, a fluttering belt or a pulley that turns roughly can mean the tensioner is worn, but a stretched belt or a tired accessory bearing can give the same signs. With the engine off and cool, look over the belt for cracks or glazing and check the pulley for wobble before you replace anything.
