Squeak noise from drivebelt or pulley

hi:

I have a 2001 X5 3.0, which has 77,000 miles on it. 3 weeks ago, I had the Inspection 2 done at dealer. After few days, I started hearing squeak noise from the drive belt area.

I went to a local mechanic to change the drive belts. The noise didnt stop.

Its so far a low squeak noise, it starts few minutes after I drive the car. It can be heard when the car is stopped at a red light or traffic. Also, I can hear it when the engine is running and the car is parked. If I go more than 5 mph, I dont hear the noise. (so far)

If anyone has experienced similar problem, please let me know what you did. I took it to the mechanic who changed the belts. He claimed that I need to chnage the pulleys. If that kind of service is needed, please let me know how much it may cost.

thanx a lot
