Belt squeek is makin me nutts.

[ripper]

I dunno if its my pully's or just the belt but its friggin annoyin. If I spray the belt with some silicone it stops. If I drive the car like 10 minutes it stops. But for that 10-15 minutes it sounds like crap. What ya think? New pulley's? Belt dressing? Its balls ass tight I know that. Its the largest belt I can get and it just makes it. Seems like once the belt heats up it expands and the squeek stops.

You have a blower right Stevo?

 

[ripper]

Yea but its not comin from the blower or idler pulley. Seems like its the belt :dunno:

 

[AaRoN]

Is your belt old? Over stretched maybe? :dunno:

=] same thing here expect mine only happens when its moist outside or it just rained (and my car is in the garage) Other than that.. it doesnt make any squeekie noise :crying:

 

[AaRoN]

Mine squeaks when I first start it up too. It goes away after it gets warm though.

Mine does that too esp. when its cold. I have turned many heads cause they thought I had a huge blower on it.... :hammer:

Try taking some wax and rub it on the belt.

mine squeal for about 10 seconds when it's moist out then it stops. my belt is brand new from ford so idk, i tried belt dressing and it didn't do anything.

wax wouldnt be a bad idea.

When I put a new one on it did the same but it will go away after you break it in. Your not supposed to put belt dressing on serp belts. Or at least the package said not to.

 

[ripper]

It is brand new. And it sits alot since its not my DD. I'll give it somr break in time and see what happens. Thnx guys

 

[Twista]

Wow, alot of people are having the same problem. That is strange. Its funny im not the only having the moisture problem. Strange. And yes it stops after the car warms up =[ WTF
