ok i guess i forgot to say that this has nothing to do with my speakers.someone just thought that is what i was talking about and i never corrected them for it.the sound is from the belt and the speakers are fine.

Why are you replacing all the most expensive stuff first? Do you wanna spend thousands only to find out that it was a $15 idler pulley?

AC Pump? Do you mean the compressor?

So you spent $160 on a alternator, $800 on an AC Compressor, without knowing what the problem is in the first place :eek:

Why do you take it to a mech's shop and find the problem and fix it right without throwing money at it

Good point. How many miles on the car? Idlers don't last forever, esp those plastic ones ;)

i already had them lying around the shop so i decided to swap them.

tylerdelaney 03-27-2009 12:05 AM

135000 miles on the engine

Stop, put down the wrenchs, buy an idler/tensioner.

$40 for the entire unit (LA1/3400 price)

tylerdelaney 03-27-2009 12:08 AM

i have one of those also so ill try it tomorrow

Redog 03-27-2009 12:11 AM

Tensioner should be replaced at that milage anyway, but I wonder if the belt you have is too small, that would explain the squeaking.

I know about the tensioner, mine melted and cut the belt in half. The car still ran fine, but it wasn't going to run that way for long.

i bought it at napa auto parts and this is what they said fit
