so when my car is running accelerating my timing belt has a pretty distinctive whiney noise idk if theres a quick fix or if i have to replace something??

 

Are you sure it's the timing belt?

Typically it's the Power Steering Belt or the Alternator/Air Conditioning Belt that squeal.

 

yea i acutlay im pretty sur eits the power steering pump/belt , so do i have to change the belts or whats the fix?

 

i recently had my power steering flushed and new fluid because it would make noises when turning steering wheel , but it still has the whine when car is running , do i have to replace my power steering pump?

 

Timing/Balancer Belt whurrs/whines while Serp belt squeals.

I'm pretty sure it's the T-Belt, here's a quick vid to show:

If it's the same noise you're getting, do this:

-Remove the upper timing cover
-TDC engine
-Turn the cam gear 3 teeth counter clockwise
-Loosen the tensioner adjusting bolt 2/3 of a turn and retighten.

This should properly tension both the timing and balancer belt. Good Luck!

Please note, I will not be responsible for any of your problems that might occur if you didn't do it right. I recommend you leave it to a mechanic who's more experience.

 

It has tensioner bolts on it. Tighten it up.

 

nah dont sound like that at all its more of a whine the noise when i put my ear close is definitely coming from this

 

Then the pump is on it's way out.

 

so its just the pump i gotta change? thats what i originally thought ... or is there a ghetto fix to it? lol

 

Directly from the factory service manual, from the section dealing with steering noise.

"Humming due to pulsation of fluid is normal. Particularly with the car stopped and the wheel turned."
