Morning all,
Last October I noticed on a damp morning every time I reversed the car when coming out of my drive I cain hear an excruciating high pitch squeal which lasts for around 5 seconds and sounded like it was coming from drive belt area.
Before Xmas when I took my car to OPC to change my PDK fluid part of the service was to replace air filter and drive belt. When I picked up the car the advisor said the technician said at the the next service as I should consider replacing the the drive belt tensioner as is the where the issue is occuring but at the same token as the drive belt has just been replaced I shouldn't have this issue for a while.
The squealing has now started happening everyday this week. For anyone else that had experienced this how long did you wait before you replace the part? As mentioned the noise lasts for seconds but at the same time I do not want to knowingly damage the engine etc.
Cheers
