I purchased this car about three months ago and changed the belt preventively as it was making noise, about a montha go , I noticed that the squeak had returned so I took it to my mechanic and he told me that you need to change the Adjuster Bearing (pulley) and he did, for a day or two the car kept quiet then the squeak returned, I took it right back and he told me that you should change the other smaller pulley that the belt runs on and he did , again no avail. I am annoyed at the noise, it goes away after about five minutes or once the car heats up. Please tell me what is wrong and what do I need to do. Thanks a bunch

Chances are there is a glaze on the pulleys. Try cleaning them.
