This could be a long shot, but is your girlfriend in the car when this whining occurs?

I have the same noise. I actually had two, one was continual and the other (is) when I rev to about 3 grand. I'll have to take off the fan belt and give it a rev and see if it still makes the noise.

I got the idler pulleys and tensioner pulley done all at the same time. I got my mechanic to do it and it cost me about $220 supplied and fitted!
