I have a really annoying squeaking when I start my car up. It's hard to tell where it's coming from since the procharger whistle. I believe I've narrowed it down to an idler pulley or A/C pulley. When I turn the A/C on high the squeaking goes down considerably.

Could it be a bearing, or something else? I'm sure it's not the belt.

Thanks in advance for the replies.

is it like a chirping? is it coming from the front of the car or the middle of the car? try and narrow it down. could be anything. only thing i ever had squeek/chirp on me was my transmissions Throw out bearing.

Well it's from the front of the engine. I know it's not the alternator pulley or the belt. I also know it's not the tranny. It goes away after the car has ran a mile or two so that leads me to believe it is some sort of bearing.

is your belt old?

or...

this may be a dumb question but have you checked your oil? i had the same problem. it would squeak for a minute or two and then the sound would go away. changed the belt and tensioner pulley and nothing changed. then i checked the oil and it was a little low so i changed it and the squeaking stopped...

his belt has maybe 2000 miles on it and the oil probably not even 1k since the last oil change

then id say just start checking pulleys.

UPDATE: I sprayed belt dressing on my pulleys this morning and am fairly certain its coming from my crank pulley.

Common?
