Need Help Please: Annoying Squeek
so a few weeks ago my engine started to squeek at idle and when i was driving. i was pretty sure it was just a bad belt at first. it got really bad so i took it in and had it looked at and both belts replaced bc thats what seemed to be making the noise. i had it looked at by a guy who knows vettes up and down before i took it in to get fixed and he said i should be good if i just change both the belts bc all my pulleys seemed fine...so after i had the belts replaced the squeek went away for abt a week but now its back 
but it only squeeks when im driving and not at idle unlike before. its incredibly annoying and embarrasing. does anyone know what the problem could be here? bad pulley? thanks for your helps guys

My 99 did similar until I changed out both the tensioners, their pulleys and the idler pulley.
The car is 10+ years old, regardless of miles some of these moving parts will need replacement just based on age. And if your going to be pulling the belts off you might as well change out all the moving parts in the belt drives.
