New belt! Why back in my day when belt made noise we tightened it up and ran it some more. Then when that didn't work we put some stuff on it, tightened it again and kept going! Then when the belt broke we started in on the ol' lady's pantyhose! Then when we ran out of that we....
OK, that's enough. Yes by all means, as new belt is the ticket. they are cheap after all.

just another thought
the alt must put out some serious current
just after starting to re-charge the bat.
belt swap -> put the old one in the smuggler's locker.
Just had one break on my 94 Legacy wagon,
went to the locker, back in action in less time
than it took to type this. (well almost)
Don't forget to loosen the lock nut in the tensioner
before cranking on the adjustment bolt.

Hi, Bumping this thread up with a followup question.
2001 forester 92k miles. cold engine squealing belt and lack of pwr steering assist until all warmed up a few minutes later, then all is normal. Fluid level ok.
Whereabouts is the power steering belt tension adjustment gizmo located? What procedure do I follow to tighten it a bit? thx.
