Squeak Squeak ... not the tensioner

OK, I give up. I can't figure out where this squeak is coming from and several people here in the club have got the same issue.

When the car starts, there's a squeaking noise at idle, like the belt tensioner. After the car warms up, it goes away. It's not the tensioner, it's not the AIR pump, and I've changed the belts.

Anyone?

Wish I could help more on this. I JUST fixed my squeak yesterday, but I only got it when I turned the a/c on. It was the a/c belt.

Can you tell where it's coming from at all (besides just the front of the engine)? Have you tried a stethoscope or a makeshift one?
