not sure, but i'd put it up on ramps, turn it on, crawl under, and see if you can isolate the sound.

i tired that already.... car rev. fine.... it only making those noises/vibration when driving...

 

"squeking from the pulley"... Did you shave the plastic lip on the crank cover?

 

yep.... i did that. probly not as much as the pix you'r showing... but belt was def. not touching.

 

if it only dows it while driving, i'd bet it has something to do with the flexpipe. your exhaust shifts around a LOT when driving. which exhaust do you have?

Mike

 

obx 4-2-1 race header, bosal flex(new), obx cat-back

i dunno....

 

I have a feeling whiteboyslo is right. If you haven't heard a noise since and then after installing all that other stuff and you know it isn't the pulley then I would check your flex. I doubt if the sway bar would be making that noise.

 

how can my flex pipe possibly be making those noise???

anyone have problem with their flex pipe?

 

do you have your a/c on when you hear squeeks?

 

do you have your a/c on when you hear squeeks?

it squeeks on and off..... with or w/o AC on.

 

ok.... so after more driving with this annoying vibration problem...

i figured, it runs completly fine(Perfect) within the first 5 mins of driving and under 40mph.

and as soon as engine started to heat up or above 50mph or rev'n the RPM higher than 3500

it started to shake and vibrate like CRazzyyyyyyy. Oh yeah... also, during a slow turn it vibrates.

during hwy driving.... it seems like my car is having problem moving the RPM, its struggling to get above 3000 RPM w/o floor'n it (with that in mind, i have an automatic)

Now i dont see how this can be a flex pipe problem... because if there's leak, should there be vibration or load noise thr out entire RPM.

My only guessss are:
1) My pulley wasnt tq correctly?
2) tenision on the belt???? too tight? too loose????
3) My belt was rubbin against something???? (i did shave the crank cover for clearence)
4) YOU TELL ME????? im so confused

please help... i need Input!!!

 

u cant adjust the tension on the belt.

take the pulley off and put the stock one back on and see if it stops. or reinstall the UDP and see if that helps

 

I just took my car into the dealer to get that same problem fixed....I thought it was my belt or pulley squeeking but with ac on or off, accellerate/decellerate...no difference. Drove me nuts...the sound was very hard to isolate.

Turns out it was one of my heatsheilds that was working loose...what you are most likely hearing is that. I am willing to bet that it may have come loose while messing with the exhaust mods.

The ones on the cat are usually the first ones to come loose...but this time it was the one further up the exhaust...near the oil pan.
