how many miles? what year, what does it sound like

Boca Raton, Florida
95 Eclipse GS- sold
99 Eclipse GSX- 386awhp
98 Eclipse GS- sold
92 Prelude

is it kinda chirping (diff from squeekin belts)?

mine did the something similar, it was loud and annoying at idle, but goes away when the rpms start goin up. after i re torqued it to 105 ft. lbs, the sound became much quieter, and you can hardly hear it when the hood is closed.

hopefully its only that, and nothin to do with your timing belt.

I seem to hear some sort of grinding noise when it's cold. I only hear it if I'm cruising and then I hit the gas again, and it sounds kinda like a grinding noise (almost like rattling). Not squeaking, but more like if a cat was scratching some carpet. Any ideas?
