Hi mate just came across your video. The sound of the whine when youd sitting inside the car is the exact aound im getting on a cold start and also when driving the car mlre noticable at a higher rev when shifting gears. I just replaced tensioner pulley bearing and both belts but not the tensionee unit itself. Do you know if a worn alternator would make that kind of whining noise towards the very beginning of the video?
@skycar250818 күн бұрын
Hi there, I would remove the alternator belt and run the engine without it. If the noise is gone, then the alternator bearing is bad or power steering pump is bad. Also, have you tried putting the transmission in neutral and hearing if the noise is gone? Just to exclude the possible transmission noise.

Couldn't believe how loose the nut was at the start of the video with the pin still in? The safety pin that saved the day. It's from improper torque. What low profile wrench doesn't flare at the factory torque spec? 76 or 90 ft lbs.

how do you know how much your tightening the bolt in ft. lbs. if your just using a torque wrench?
@skycar25089 ай бұрын
The only way to tighten the bolts to exact torque, is to use a torque wrench. I did just approximate torque.
@tomashford22479 ай бұрын
Not to criticize, and I think the video was 99% good. However, when you are tightening the lug nuts on the wheel we should all do so in a STAR pattern rather than sequentially. By saying "a star pattern", I mean first tighten one lug to a fairly low torque, then pick a lug across from the first one, then the one next to the first one (which is across from the 2nd) and so on. Go around, increasing torque, 2 or 3 times until reaching the correct torque. This way there will be no run-out, or wobbling of the wheel. Use a torque wrench, if possible. This I learned from a master mechanic.

@skycar250810 ай бұрын
Rubber bushings can have some minimal play. The good thing is that you can inspect them visually. If both bushings are not cracked or torn, and the bolts are tightened, then the mount is good. The other mounts can be bad.
@Myerp1172 ай бұрын
I also noticed that the bracket that the mount connects to on the engine side has a slide hole (not just a circle, but a cutout that allows back and forth movement of the bolt), but once you get the two bolts on both sides put through, and then torqued down (in that order), there isn't any slack and the bucking sensation has gone away.
