It seems, almost sure, it's coming from one of the belt wheels (maybe the top one). I just feel like sprayin wd40 all of that shit but I hear thats not a good idea. Anyway, before i decide to take it in I wanna know if anyone has had this problem and/or knows what i should do.

They replaced the alternator drive belt under warranty.   OLIVER CLOTHSOFF (Everythingleaks) Senior Member Username: Everythingleaks Post Number: 297 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 02:24 am:    Check the idler pulley on the Rh side of the engine (LH if facing the engine from the front of the vehicle). It will be located below the alternator and below the belt tensioner. If the pulley is plastic this probably the source of your noise. LR has a revised pulley out, Part # PQR500060, that is made of metal. This is a VERY common fault.
