Getting a "squeak" sound at idle every 5 seconds or so, but it's very consistent in timing.

I'm guessing it's the belt (accessory) that may be rubbing on something - any ideas?

Default it was hard for me to place the sound. sometimes i thought it was coming from behind

and sometimes in front. if it's the same problem i delt with, you will hear it get worse.

have you ever had your Tbelt replaced?
