as dealer determined cause. noise still there though! but that is more of a belt noise and this is a new different noise. definitely at the front (tensioner is at the rear, lower). great suggestions though. thx a ton. going to new Indy tomorrow morn to check it out:
1-some pulley went bad and belt came off Feb06. dealer. new pulley and belt
2-now has belt noise esp at idle with AC running or pwr str use (under torque at idle - floppy belt noise). dealer said tensioner. replaced tensioner. still noise. gotten even worse over 6 months. dealer says noise is normal for car at 100k. no noise before Feb06 repair and new belt!! same noise dealer at 40k said was wearing belt. (even htough was much less noisy then). replaced belt. noise went away. dealer refuses to replace belt this time as new belt....O...K.......diagnosis depends upon who's paying.....
3-new noise definitely not just belt noise above. going to Indy!!
