Could have the tension checked on the surpentine belt or just replace it.
DING DING DING... we have a winner. I took it to a mechanic that determined it IS the serpintine belt tensioner. He actually bought a new belt to see if maybe the belt had stretched and if that was the problem. It only slightly improved. It was definately the tensioner.
