Hey everyone. The weather is finally starting to cool down here in Arkansas and I love it. One thing I have noticed though that came with this cold weather is a sound. On the mornings when I start my car, there's a pulley or something up from that squeaks and is dependent on rpm speed. Once the car warms up to operating temp, the squeak goes away and I really won't hear it the rest of the day. Any thoughts? My serpentine belt is less than 10 months old and looks/feels good.

Thanks

 

Its either a bad pulley bearing, worn out tensioner or contaminated/worn out belt. My guess is one or more bad pulley bearings. Good luck...

 

Hey. Still battling this problem. I have replaced both smooth idler pulleys and just recently replaced the belt tensioner pulley. The squeak went away for about a week and now it's slowly coming back. Each morning it's a little louder and more constant. Im thinking it's the belt.

 

try a new gatorback belt

 

Do u think it could be the belt?
