Chirping under hood

Once again something is Chirping in the pulley system. They already replaced a pulley. I'm getting so sick of dealing with this car. Anyone else getting the Chirping?

Did you check for any nests under the hood? That might be why!




All kidding aside, what'd the dealer say about this? My friend had a vette with this issue and shot abit of WD40 on the belt and the issue was fixed momentarily...so he replaced the belt altogether and it fixed the issue. I don't know what kind of replacement you'd use on the Benz since I'm no pro at all but wanted to give you some insight. Good luck!

Well that's the thing. Warranty is expired now, but the chirp was fixed while under warranty. May just fix it myself. Don't feel like dealing with them anymore.
