Squeaky timing belt

I have a d16z6. The timing belt squeaks now and then under 2k RPM. The noise stops over 2k RPM. Has anyone else had a problem like this? Any input would be great!

Re: Squeaky timing belt

What makes you think the timing belt squeaks? One of the drive belts or pulleys is more likely.

That, or it's your water pump / timing belt tensioner going out.

True, but if installed right, they tighten up automatically and there is really no adjustment

Will an overtightened timing belt cause major problems?
