04 FXT 5MT
99K Miles
2 days ago I started hearing a whiring sound from the engine bay. Don't have to be in gear to hear it. When I rev it can be heard louder. I haven't been able to pin point on the exact area since I can't rev the motor from the outside. I'm thinking it may be a belt tensioner.
Is this normal for Subi's ?
I asked one guy at Fine Line Tuning and he says " Yes " after hearing it.
Asked a guy from LIC and he say " No " after just explaining it to him, but was to busy to take a quick listen. His suggestion was Idle Gear.
Asked the Pretige Subaru they say " No " after hearing my car come into a Enclosed Service Bay. The sound was amplified bouncing off the walls.
I may take video tommorow and post it to YouTube. On Monday I have an appointment with Presige Subaru in Santa Rosa for diagnosis and hopefuly coverd under warranty. I've only had the car for 7 days and already acting like my AE86 .. LOL
The car has 99K Miles and no service records that I can track down. Even calling the dealers from what was listed on CarFax and the business cards I found in the Owners Manual Pouch. I may also take it to Coddingtown Firestone tommorow just for a quick inspection without telling them whats wrong to see if they find anything.
Any suggestions on what to look for ?
