96 E300 belts chirp/squeak. Replaced everything. Still chirps.
I've tried everything.
new belt and tensioner pulley. I used a parts store belt and that screeched like hell. So I bought the contitech belt. That stopped the screech. After a few days it developed a chirp. This chirp is present at start, idle and throttle. It only stops after the car has been running for about 30 minutes.... sometimes. So I put some belt dressing on it. That stopped the chirp for a few minutes. I stopped the car let it sit a minute. When I started it up. The screech was back worse than before. So I sprayed more on and let it run as the instructions on the bottle say. I pressed down on the engine damper there and no difference I added some tension by pulling the tensioner pivot arm (top of tensioner spring) a little bit and no difference. The belt feels tight. Looking through old reciepts I replaced the damper a few years back.. less than 15,000 miles ago. What am I missing? Last edited by ChrisArnt; 10-19-2017 at 12:58 PM. Reason: Clarification |
