  • strange squeeling

    hey guys its been a while since i posted. Anyways i am having some issues. Whenever i am idling i tend to get a loud squeeling , however if i am idling and it squeels and turn on the AC it goes away . my thoughts are the idler pulley because i guess when i turn on the ac it pulls the belt tighter. i dont hear the squeeling if i am driving too. Also, i have a hard time starting the car after it is warmed up.

    Could be one of many, many things in the rotation group.

    Go buy a mechanics diagnostic stethescope and use it to identify the squealing part.

    OR

    Use a big screwdriver, the bigger the better, and use it like the stethescope. Hold the plasic handle up against you ear and the blade end touching the component you want to listen to. You will be able probe around and narrow down the source of the problem.

    It may look silly, but also be very careful when your working around a running engine.
