Loud, whiney, squeaky stock pullies?

Anybody got this while the car runs at idle? Kinda have to be standing outside to hear it well. I think only one of mine is making the noise, but having hard time determining which.

Wondering if I should take it in to the dealer to get replaced.

Yes, heard it too...have an appointment in August to have it checked out (and to pick up my replacement key for the defective one they gave me)

Could be a belt.
I heard that noise before my belt went.

It was the "Upper Guide Pulley" that fixed it for me.

Here's a video before the replacement: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0BdboqCUak
