Idler Pulley I've been getting this squeaking only after the car has reached full op temp. It also only happens as the car is reving down..
We used a stethescope today.. and kinda narrowed it down to either the alternator or the idler pulley near the power steering pump.
Has anyone else had these issues with an idler pulley or alternator..
How much does an idler pulley run? part number?
Thanks

When my pulleys were squeaking, I wasn't sure which pulley it was so I sprayed WD-40 on each on (into the bearing part) until one of them stopped squeaking. You can try this to narrow it down. My squeaky idler went away on it's own, I had gotten some water in the bearing.
