I have a squeak squeak squeak squeak noise at idle, it started gradually happening where when just started when cold the noise would occur then go away. Started it today and the noise did not go away even after warmed up, sitting at idle you can hear it. Along with the squeaking you can kind of hear a light scraping noise.
The Crankshaft Pulley is new, all front seals are new, no leakage I can see, Timing Belt and Tensioner replaced recently, all new V-Belts and properly adjusted, Power Steering recently flushed (is currently working fine). The only thing I can think of is that the A/C Compressor went out a little while ago and started smoking when it was on with a bad electrical burning smell, I haven't been using the compressor at all.
I poked my head around and can hear the noise the most from the Alternator and A/C Compressor area, I'm assuming it is one or the other.
Can you just pull the A/C Compressor Belt or does it need to be on for some reason.............? I'd like to eliminate this as a possibility, then if not I will assume it is maybe the Alternator.
Thanks for any information that may help...............!
