Hey everyone! I noticed a while back, and again recently, a squeek that is definitely coming from the belt area of the engine. It is definitely a consistently repetative sound that correlates with the movement of the belt. My question is, has anyone heard anythgin similar and do you knwo what it is? Is it the belt needing changed (its not that high pitched steady whine you hear a belt make normally) or is it a pully? Are there pully that start to squeek commonly on these, perhaps the SC pully? It wouldn't be the SC needing oil would it?

Any insight woudl be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

 

well i have the N/A, but i had a similar problem, turns out the coolant overflow tank had come unclipped from the bottom and had started rubbing against one of the pulleys.

 

Squeaking could be a bad tensioner, bad pulley, or bad belt.

 

Take a peice of hose like fuel line that is maybe 3 feet long, turn the car on and hold one end of the hose to your ear and use the other to listen to certain areas of the belt system. Of course this is a little dangerous so if you decide to do this be very careful and do it at your own risk. But it could help you found what is squeaking. My guess is that the bearings in one of the pulleys is bad.
