With the motor cooled...

Definitely try to see if both cooling fans are spinning freely, by hand

Also, I never recommend buying parts until the problem is identified.. The tensioner can be tested as well by removing the belt.

Thanks man. I did check both cooling fans and they were both working good. We did test the tensioner and that is what we ended up replacing. Got a new tensioner and belt done and now the car is perfect once again.
