Sounds like mine. 2000 Aero. Started whining around 68K. At 72K it was still whining but it certainly got worse as it was driven farther.
I've had the idler wheels replaced. That helped. The worst sound though is from the alternator - the bearing went bad and that caused the problem. If you are having problems with whining sound and needle dips - plan for an alternator.
Mine, the bearing was worn and it was getting hot on longer drives. Not safe (especially since I had a spraying leak in one of my oil lines). Not cheap either (sorry to bear bad news).
