High pitched noise

[robbo000]

sounds like what i got in my vt ss mate
already done all the belts and the pulleys, squeel is still there for me
last thing to tamper with is my tensioner

well there isn't any harm changing them over anyway .. my car's full of squeals lol, so i'm sure it will help stop one of them lol..

ahm if its a squeaky belt and it keeps going after you replace the belt and the pulleys, i would check the harmonic balancer as it is one of the signs of a blown harmonic balancer, or a harmonic balancer on the way out.

got the issue fixed today, it was the front left wheel bearing.. the noise got unbearable after getting rear-ended 2 wks ago, so i went to a different mechanic took him a while to diagnose it, but he got there lol..

so yeh, thank **** for that lol..

i didnt even think to ask if it sounded like worn down brake pads.... sounds very similar to a wheel bearing.

squealing noise from aircon or pully???

Hey guys

I have a VT xu6 supercharged, well basicly my problem is squealing noise coming from the front of the car, 1st time i thought it was the pullys, i replaced them now it still does it even more, got told its a waterpump, changed that, squealing noise still there, its driving me crazy, now i think its the aircon clutch or something like that?? not sure so please help??? ..

if yours is charged (i only assume from your name...) it's not the charger belt or the charger bearing?

bearings? could be the pulley's themselves as in the wheel.. not the belt.
check aircon belt and fan.
also does it happen when idling or neutral/park revving?

cheers,
