Supercharger noise
Hi all!
My girlfriends car just returned from the shop, when sh started it up this am it sounded a bit like a card in the spokes of a bicycle wheel. Shut it off and I'm pretty sure it was coming from the,supercharger. Sound,went,away, but curious....known issue?
Pic of the old one it replaced....

The noise persisted a bit after the belt stopped... sounded like something spinning down. If the belt is stopped what could still be spinning?? Are the vanes of the supercharger clutched?

There’s lots of videos out there on how to replace.
