Sounds like a waterpump failing to me. I had the exact same problem 3 weeks ago. I brought it back to the mechanic who had changed the timing and the belts to check to see what would cause the squeek. He told me all I needed to do was change the belts again! So that's what we did. The following week I went for a long trip with some friends, on a desert highway I hear a very loud squeel, loud noise and my battery light came on. I turned off all the lights in my car because I thought it was my alternator. I couldn't see the temperature gauge needle rising. I kept on driving until I noticed large amounts of smoke coming from under the hood. Pulled over to realize it wasn't my alternator but it was indeed my waterpump. My waterpump had been failing for a while and the mechanic failed to recognize it. This resulted in a blown headgasket and many many other problems...
