hmm.... my tib started squeaking about a week ago. 02.gif let me know what you guys did to fix it. I changed my belts about 5 months ago and they are still rotating fine while squeaking. I was going to put some WD-40 on it when I got home today.

Blue,

replacing the belt did it for me. No more squeal. It's strange though because the belt I took off didn't seem glazed or worn at all. But yeah try that.

ive done that a few times before on accident, while spraying wd-40 on my pulleys i got some on my belts and it really hasnt done much... just make sure the car is running when you do it so that it removes as much wd-40 off the belt as possible.
