Supercharger sqeaking. Uploaded video, pls help diagnose
Hey guys,
Just brought my car out of hibernation and I've been noticing a loud squeaking noise I think is coming from my S/C. At first I thought maybe it was sticky lifters, but I haven't heard this noise previously. I've uploaded a video. I would appreciate it if you guys could give me some advice.
For the record, I've recently changed the following..
NSK S/C bearing
Mobil 1 Jet II turbine S/C oil
Belts (NW pulleys and PSK)
Water pump
Motor oil change w/ 0W40 Mobil 1
Transmission fluid flush and refill
Coolant flush and refill
Car has 140,000kms and runs great aside from that annoying sound. I changed the motor oil, transmission oil and S/C oil this morning in hopes that it would fix the problem, but the sound is still there. The S/C bearing was done right before I stored the car for winter, as was all the pulleys, belts, etc. The sound appears to be coming from the top left of the engine bay.
I hope this isn't the S/C going dead. I really hate these IHI S/C's.
