Guest EROR-ONION Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Hi all, got sent the link to this forum from a supra owner. I picked up a toyota aristo 3.0 tt yesterday, but today after having a good look around it has started making a strange whining sound... like a supercharger wer from the front of the engine, where the cambelt is. any ideas what this could be? almost sounds like something is rubbing against the cover....

Prof. Monkey Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Use the aircon more, or change the auxillary belt. Go to your local motor factors and buy a Gates belt, or even better contact, Nic on here and he will hook you up with one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
