Timing Belt - 4/12/2007 7:34:58 PM    jombolo   Posts: 10 Joined: 3/28/2007 Status: offline I replaced my timing and balancer belt yesturday. The car idles and drives perfectly. But now there is a high pitched whinning noise. I'm wondering if i tightened the timing and balancer belt too much. Also there is a slight vibration when i am accelerating. However if im driving at high speeds like on the freeway, it drives and feels fine. Any help would be wonderful. thank you. Post #: 1

First thing i would do is to double chk all the work you did , there is some write ups  with pictures on our DIY  section , you might want to take a look there and see if anything looks different of how you installed yours _____________________________ No Year No Model in Your signature No Help from me Take a look in the DIY section before asking for help Always Diagnose First,,, Before Replacing Parts (in reply to jombolo) Post #: 2

I had one or both belts too tight and there was a whining noise. I just got them adjusted correctly last weekend. It is totally silent now. Search tensioners and you will find my posts about it.
