R50/53 High pitch squeal when I drive
High pitch squeal when I drive
Well yet another squeal thread...
I noticed it a week or so ago and it is driving me nutz! Although everyone else notices it at speeds above 30ish I hear it all the time. It seems to go with the speed of the engine (the faster it turns the higher pitch it is).
I am thinking a belt issue, but I dont know where to start, or look for that matter, and you cant really test a belt...
Any ideas?

Have a friend rev the engine for you while you listen to various parts of the engine.
It helps to use a hose like a stethoscope--one end in your ear, the other near the point you want to listen to. (Be careful where you poke it though!)
Good luck!
Good luck!
