Default ARGH! I think my water pump and/or clutch fan is going bad again

Unless it's just because it is humid as heck out here, I think my clutch fan and/or water pump is slowly dying again. I had this same issue last summer as well. One of them is making a loud squeal starting around 5500rpms. It wasn't doing it earlier when I left the forum meet, but started up once I got near my house. Both parts were replaced by the dealer, and it seems to have lasted about a year again. I'm thinking maybe something in the accessories is out of alignment causing them to wear out prematurely? A clutch fan and waterpump should last longer than a year...
