68356, grinding noises from belt area
Posted by silvreclipsers, Feb-13-04 03:25 AM
hey lately I've been getting metal to metal grinding and clicking noises coming from the passenger side of the car, it seems to be getting worse every week what could it be? Timing belt tensioner? I have 42,000 miles if that matters :shrug

or waterpump. mine went and it sounded the grinding metal. It's def. bearings of some sort from the pump or pully. Get it checked out NOW or it could be bad like timing belt could slip or something.
