    Did you replace the serpentine belt? I had a squeaky engine noise that I thought was the idler pulley but I bought a new serpentine belt first and the noise went away. The old belt was just stretched enough to slip but not the typical squeal you hear from old cars starting up, this was a more constant annoying noise.

    Yeah I figured you replaced it already. Hopefully its the idler pulley, having a problem you can't figure out is a major pita.

    Haha, so shop called today, and the idler pulley did not fix it like I was suspecting.....

    So while I am gone to France for my last meet of the season this weekend they are going to try and find the real issue, haha :-) I will be back next monday and hopefully I will have something positive to report.
