Loud chirping sound coming from belt area, garage said it was the alternator belt had it replaced 5th time this has been replaced also replaced the alternator a few months ago, had idler pulley replaced noise is louder than ever now
I will save you lots of time and money, the shop is B.S. ing you the noise you are hearing is not the altenator, although is conveniently in the right spot for a shop to lie to you. If you look at the altenator youll notice that another mechinism in there looks trifflingly close to identicle as the altenator but has hose leading to other areas. That little scandal of a part is known as an A\C motor. The reason its louder now is because the fresh altenator is winding the belt alot better than the older one you replaced. The a\c motor is not a required fix. You can simply cut the belt and do without air conditioning till yer ready to put a new one in. Any thing else mail me at demon _oblivion hotmail Jeff a.k.a. Obi.
Remove the drive belts, then spin each pulley by hand. You should find one that feels wobbly or rough. This is the component that is most likely causing your chirp. Usually it is either the water pump or an idler pulley. DO NOT run the engine with the belts removed- the engine will overheated and severely damaged!
Have the belt run checked for proper alignment as it runs across the pulleys, this problem is almost always caused by belt alignment problems,
