PLEASE HELP!! Weird engine noise....

Hi Guys,

I have the following weird noise eminating out of what appears to be my SC. Has anyone heard it before and what did you replace? Mine is a 2003 SLK32 AMG with 170 000 kms on the clock.


Your help is much appreciated,

Brad

Take the belt off, start and run the car for 30 sec and see if the noise goes away. If the noises goes away start chasing which pulley it is. If the noise is still there then it might be engine related
