Hey peoples, 4AGE Noise question. MR2 4AGE been converted to RWD.
It only happens when the engine is up to temp, kinda gets intermittent squeels when it's approaching mid gauge temp.
Engine has:
new water pump
new tensioner
new throwout bearing
new clutch
no engine fan
checked alternator
no other belts
full sump
full water
Make the noise with clutch in or out in neutral, sounds louder from under the engine. A mechanic mate had a quick listen, doubts it's a bottom end bearing. Any ideas?? cam bearings??
Thanks
Glen.

What happens if you slip the belt off and run it for a minute?

so that rules out water pump, alt etc...
so it has to be either valve train, crank, oil pump, or front/rear seals.... what else is there?

Cool, it's got a new rear main seal, might have to go off to the mechanic for a look...
Cheers
