I have a new issue with what i think is the tensioner for the AC pump. I know someone here can confirm or refute my thoughts and lead me down the right path.
I am getting a squeeling noise (like metal on metal) coming from the right front of the engine. Without the A/C engaged, i get the noise. When I turn on the A/C, the noise disappears. Is this the tensioner pulley for the drive belt for the A/C? Is it the A/C clutch bearing? To me it sounds similar to the noise that came out of the tensioner on the front of the engine before I replaced it about 4-5 years ago. All my pulleys and tensioner were replaced at the same time.
Any advice?
Edited to add sounds with A/C on, off and on again.
