Strange Chirps & Squeaks? *VIDEO inside*
I just got home from work and started hearing some strange chirps/squeaks from under the hood. I have the s/c and it seems to be coming from the pulley side of things there. heres a clip of what im talking about. ignore my brother. lol. he said something about the belt but i really think its something with the pulleys themselves. perhaps not tight enough or something? i dunno, i could be wrong and he could be right - or we both may be wrong. i looks around and everything seems ok. im not sure if this is something i should be concerned about as the manual states youll hear chirps; however, ive never heard what i would consider a chirp since i got the s/c.. so is it possible this is sign that the s/c is almost past its break-in stage? i dunno, i need help. lol. thanks in advance!

The 07 kit comes with a better belt than the previous years. Mine doesn't sound anything near that loud like that chirp you've got in that clip jason. I popped the hood and listened to the car and it's just the usual song it makes *shrug*
