Squeezing sound after shutoff, not the turbo!

So, to add to the body of knowledge out there, i was hearing a sound after engine shutdown, like a wheel coming to a light screeching halt. I figured it was probably the turbo wheel bearing coming to a stop since that was the only wheel free of the serpentine belt. The wheel would come to a stop about 2 seconds after shutdown. Well, i took her in for an oil change and my mechanic showed me it was actually the alternator pully. I had also noticed a slight burning smell, i thought it was just oil in a hot engine, but after hearing it was the alternator pully and since it had been doing it a few years, i thought it wise to have them replace it, oem of course because this one lasted for 349k! I still have the original clutch too in the 5speed. Despite what many say, the 03 is a good car!
Best,
Ben
