sounds like some sort of bad bearing.
Start checking all of the bearings, like water pump, atlernator, A/C, P/S, tensioner....
^^^ exactly. Id just remove one belt at a time till the noise i gone and go from there
I just thought of something...
Happened in my first EG... Do you have an aftermarket sound system?
Cause I remember the previous owner of my EG did a dodgy with the sound setup and the wires weren't earthed properly etc. It would whine in tune with my revs iirc.
sound system seems stock... but i wil have a look, if i turn it off, the whine should stop if its coming from the speakers?
Sorry but why cant you open the bonnet and see if its even coming from the engine
any mods?
the noise sounds like an electric motor, i reckon its more likely to be a bearing problem than a belt.... the belt is old, i went to a mechanic and he sprayed some belt dressing on the belt and had no effect on the noise.
everything is stock except the exhaust.
sounds like its a idler/thrust bearing imo
just have a look at the fawkn belts/pullys and idelers would u please
i did already, as i said, ive taken it to a mechanic and he said it sounds normal. thats why ive posted this threads here.
im goin to another mechanic to get belt/pulleys checked out.
