Hi Guys,
I've had a recurring issue on my car involving a squeaking from engine bay, Ive already taken my car to SavSpeed shop twice for the same issue, 1st time car had belt and tensioner Spring replaced 2nd time the car had belt replaced again and a brand new pulley tensioner fitted and both times the car would be fine for a week, then slowly then noise would creep back![Cry]( "Cry")
"When I start the car for the first time of the day I'll hear a very loud squeaking/squealing sound. After about 10-15 minutes of driving the sound pretty much disappears. However, if the car sits for a few hours and is started again the sound will be back and after a few minutes of driving it will go away again. The longer the car sits without being started, the longer the noise will be present for upon start up"
iv read another fourm on bimmerfest http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/showthr...p?t=788460
which is a carbon copy of my issue, and i see he found a fix by replacing the belt with a OEM belt.... im just struggling to see how 2 different belts could be fitted and the same issue happens. iv already dump a lot of money into this issue and dont want to continue that way.
your comments will be highly appreciated.
