Default Squeaking noise when off the throttle?

Just developed a new noise and this one is pretty annoying. When ever I let off the throttle the thing squeaks like crazy. Normal does it once the car warms up. Thinking it's the alternator but was curious if there could be something else. Also if it is the alternator are there any suggestions on how to make it stop?

Is the noise when moving or during idle? If bearings or pulleys are causing it, isolate each by turning off engine, lubricate one at a time each time you run engine.

It's during both actually but that's a good suggestion and will try that

Front drive shaft squeak is very tricky but only when moving. If just moving, you have to physically check it. Often problem is not visible until you lift the tires and turn the shaft itself. But you can do the same test with lubricant spray just for few miles but shaft need to be really saturated with it. The lubricant dries up quick and the squeak will return.
