Is my supercharger on its way out(video inside)
So my belt tensioner has been rattling, but I havent had spare time to work on it(newborn and other house projects). The tensioner started making a bunch of noise now, and now I am hearing a 2nd sound coming from the supercharger.
Heres the vid, i didnt edit it, car starts around 15 sec in

So does this sound like the charger is slowly dying? its the 2nd whine you can hear aside from the standard SC whine. You can hear it on idle. its not my steering pump, that sound is way different.
Any help here before I drop a bunch of money on a rebuilt one and tear this car apart?
Thanks!
