what can you tell me about this...Guy at the dealer says it doesnt need done right away, but to concider bringing it in soon to fix....What are symptoms of this???
What knowledge can you educate me with? ANything to do with this let me know!



Btw, I got them to flush and refill the SC oil...only cost me 40 bucks for that!!!!
Man I thought my bill was coming in WAYYYYYYY more than the 60!

It'* not clear whether the bearings in the supercharger or the bearings in the tensioner are making the noise. Which one did he say was going bad?

my supercharger pully wheel thingy majiggy just started making a quiet squeal noise....not like constant....but like....squeak....squeak....squeak.....etc. at idle. i powerwashed the engine and it did it after that. will it go away? arg.

It is possible that the squeak will go away because it started after a power wash, however, you should monitor it for a while to make sure. It may be a belt noise (we hope) that came about because the pulley was cleaned or it may be a bearing going bad in your SC (we hope not).

OK - first of all - don't power wash an engine.

My belt tensioner went bad. I thought that the supercharger was going, or the alt, or the ............

It is a simply item to replace.

Supercharger fluid - $40 to replace / flush.

Just to let you know, you could have done this yourself for $10 - $12.00. That'* the cost for (2) bottles of sc oil.

i have powerwashed every single car engine i have owned. never been a prob. i will continue to powerwash my engine...hey, i gotta keep up with will'* preeety engine compartment =) good news is that the squeak went away the next day. thanks for the help.
