MazdaMomma Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 sounds like the timing is slightly off, but will have a mechanic check it out. Will let you know what they say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goliat6288 Posted September 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 ok guys and girls.... ready for a success story... ok so i decided to give the milly a drive.... and that dam noise is gone... all i had was the chirp of my serpentine belts. bought them and was ready install BUT It wasn't the serpentine belts either. .... i decided to do the belts and once i took out the wheel and removed the plastic i saw the bottom tensioner, i opened the hood and located the top one... so i go at it with the top one first... no success at turning the B bolt. i saw bolt A and reached for it with a wrench and it was the wrong size and didnt have the right size. After about 15 min of trying to loosen up bolt B, i noticed it was a little stripped so i turned it back the little it had turned, checked the the belt on how much it moved and when i felt it at the right tension i left it alone. I then moved on to the one at the bottom. Once i again i went straight for the B bolt and surprisingly it was easy, i only turned it about 180 degrees, i put down the wrench and then turned it by hand. I saw bolt A and gave that a try with my hand and it turned with ease. I also noticed that the belt on that tensioner is behind the first belt so i couldn't take it out. so i decided to tighten it everything back up i tightened B bolt up to the right place and also turned bolt A with my universal socket since it fit. checked the tension and when i thought it was right i left it there. i then proceeded to put everything back on and turned on the milly... no sound... left it on for about 30 minutes while i put the wheel back on tightened up the lug nuts and jacked down the car. Since i was still at work in the garage i cleaned up and put everything away. drove home and no sound. So i turned to Auto Zone and gave the belts back. for got to mention that i looked at the grip and felt the grip of the belts b4 i decided to give the new ones back and compared them to the new ones... and it didnt have much of a difference. Edit: i checked the FSM for changing the belts and named the bolts A and B according to the FSM. And i just noticed i was doing it wrong i was supposed to loosen bolt a first then b...
