HELP!! What else could this be? Ok. I have birds under the hood. I know my a/c is much of the culprit. That belt is not currently on the car. Next, it still squeeks. Bad. What it warms up the squeeking goes away.
I have replaced,
Tensioner/Pulley ( Yes, the whole thing
from the dealership )
Alternator 4 times. ( OE finally went out, bought Autozone Reman, 2 alternators later, I just went and bought a BOSS H.O.)
Idler ( Car Quest )
Water Pump ( Car Quest )
Serpintine Belt ( Car Quest )
It still squeeks like nest of chicks. I don't understand what is wrong. Everytime I replace something, the squeeking goes away for a while then it slowly but surely comes back. I haven't replaced the PS pump or the Crank Pulley. I am at a loss at what to do other than take it to a shop and tell them to have fun.

Hose the entire engine bay with WD-40....that should do it. 
My guess A/C compressor pulley. Id seriously just try lubing that area a bit...Pull the belt off the compressor, start and see if it goes away....

Lol, i'd start a fire. But I guess then I could claim ins? lol
I know the a/c compressor is dead. The a/c belt is not on the car. Hasn't been there for a couple of weeks so far.
