hey guys i got a few problems with the car.
first im geting brake noise from the left front brakes i pulled the wheel and it all looks good but the wierd part is that its wile im rolling but if i just touch the brakes very lighty the noise goes away its like brake noise mixed with a little grinding so what could this be.
also i have a lot of belt noise and the car sounds a little like a desel and is very agravating to me.
the belt is a new oem replacement gates belt.

If you replaced the belt you should have checked idle pulley bearing. I just changed my belt with "OEM" and found the idle pulley defective. After changing the pulley AND belt it is very quiet.

well theres no grinding when i turn the wheel with the car jacked up and it dont do it over bumps.
i notice it when im driveing next to another car and the sound gets bounced back and its fairly loud and also embarasing lol.
im going to pull the wheel again and maybe pull the pads and see what i come up with.
as for the pulley where can i get it and do you have a part# or should i just call the dealer?
thanks.
