squeel at higher revs most likely culprit

Recommended Posts

right guys ive just completed an engine change on my corrado it now has an abf engine. Ive just finished it runs great but took it for a spin and at higher revs theirs quite a squeel from the engine bay a bit like a supercharger but only at higher revs i thinks its because ive tensioned the timing belt to tight or the power steering belt whats the most likely culprit and have you guys got any tips thanks ross

The bearing in the belt tensioner. Try listening to it with a metal bar held on it and pushed onto your ear.
