Car developed a problem. Anyone else?

Seems my wife's 300C has developed a nice belt squel that get's louder under throttle and quites down while idling or in park.
Off to the dealer Monday I guess.
Has anyone else had to go in to have a belt replaced or tensioner adjusted?

Later...

No...I think the dealer will be able to fix it pretty fast...sounds like a loose pully bracket.

It's not just on start ups. It lasts all the way down the road under throttle and during idle.
I'm trying to get the car in this Monday, we'll see.

Well done with that and I have to say that I am totally disgusted with that experience and hope nothing else goes wrong with this car.

BTW it was the tensioner and took 7.5 hrs (no part in stock) I don't know where the rest of the day went but it took 7.5 hrs.
