If its stock just go in and they'll give you the right one. Take the old one in with you and hold it up to it to see if its the same length.

Thats what I have....its ~9 years old and still looks great. But I do have the Katech tensioner which makes belts last forever.

+1. You'll want to replace the idler pulley, tensioner pulley, and 2 AC idler pullies. Yours are almost certainly dry by now and are probably adding some squeal.

Dayco makes nice AC idler replacements and the main idler and tensioner are widely available. (I purchased a nice set from Goodyear along with their Gatorback belts.)

Temperature changes the properties of whatever grease is left in the bearings. I purchased my Dayco A/C pullies from RockAuto and my Goodyear engine pullies from Summit or Jegs. (Can't remember which.)

You may not be able to find the Dayco pulley numbers in a normal lookup, but there is a thread on this site that gives the model number.

- Take the AC Belt of completely. If the noise goes away, you'll need a new A/C clutch.
- If the noise is not related to the A/C, get a mechanic's stethoscope and probe the rotating gear to find out where the noise is coming from.
