Mine squeaks only on the initial startup, when the car is cold. It squeaks for about 30sec, then it goes away. If I drive the car throughout the day, it won't squeak. If I leave it in the garage overnight, it'll squeak again on startup for 30sec. If it might be the pulley, would you chance it next weekend at the track?

What do you guys think? Idler pulley? I have a track event a week from Sunday, and am thinking of buying the bearing you mention above.
When my idler pulley started to go it did the same thing. You might order a new bearing.
