high pitch whine sound

Since I had the coolant sensor bulletin done the car makes a high pitch whine when accelerating. Almost sounds like my car has a turbo in it but its a justa coupe. anyone have any ideas?

Belt noise?

Where's the whine coming from, can you localize it?

I cannot tell where it would be coming from. The sound is actually kind of cool, just don't know if there is a problem with car

My guess, water pump is failing. Does it whine more apparent when its fully warm then when you first start the car (cold start)? Maybe not from a visual standpoint (no leaking coolant from it), but if its coming from drive belt area its a pretty good chance.
