Alright, I have been battling this problem for the last 6 months and cannot fix it. There is a bearing going out noise "squeeking?" coming from the driver side of my engine bay. I figured it was my tensioner or my AC Compressor. So I put a GSR in it (was a LS) and put a new tensioner, water pump, and timing belt on. It still makes the noise. So me and my buddys figure it the alternator. Go to autozone and buy a new alternator. Nope thats not it. So today I took off my AC and Powersteering belts thats not it. It doesnt really make it when your just idleing. When im driving down the road I can hear it. Say im in 1st gear itll squeek until I take a load off of it. Then I shift say into 4th and give it some gas and it squeeks all thru until I take a load off of it. I replaced both of my CV shafts and thats not it. Then I put the car in netural going like 30 mph and you can hear it very faintly squeeking. Its pretty loud also, I mean people that I drive by think my car is turbocharged because of it. I hate this sound. Please help my find out what the problem is.

 

so does it do this when the car is stopped? sounds like you could have a bad wheel bearing.

 

Im not sure what to say to that. I know when im rolling you can hear it pretty loud say at like 3k with no load.Then I let off the gas and put it in nuetral and it coasts you can hear it just barely. It sounds as if it goes with engine speed. Thats why I didnt think wheel bearing.

 

get some belt dressing.

it could be your crank pully?

 

i think i got the same problem every mouring when i first start her up it dont make a noise but when i pull out it makes this watery/sqeek sounds like a belt. once it shifts it goes away untill the car has been parked for ahwile. also it does it more in the rain but then goes away. mine only makes it when the car is first started or its raining

 

Alright well today when I started it, it squeeks really loud like a squeeking belt. Then when it was idleing it sounded like a bad bearing noise. What could it be though? Its not the water pump, tensioner bearing, timing belt, ac compressor, alternator, or power steering pump. Its coming from that side of the motor also, im 100% positive. Thanks for any more help. Ive got to fix this sound.

My teg had the same kinda symptoms. Except I never drove it as soon as I heard the noise. As it turned out I had a seized bearing in the dizzy. My mechanic told me that this can cause the crank pulley to sieze up and cause some major problems.

 

I figured out the noise I heard was the AC belt being not all the way tight. So its just when its in gear going. Its not when its just idleing. Also ive had the same problem (exact same) with my ls and my GSR. So I dont think its the engine.
