1998 Boxster with 121k miles on it. Bought it used. Recently when the car is driven and the engine gets hot, there is a loud squealing noise that comes from the engine compartment. I changed the drive belt, because it sounds like a noise made when the drive belt slips, but that did not help. If I have the air conditiner on, it helps stop the noise quicker when I rev the engine. Also, when I rev the engine and the rpms drop back down, the squealing stops, but it sometimes almost stalls the engine. I am going to replace the upper and lower idler pulleys and the tensioner pulley this week when the parts come in, but I wanted some advice as to whether or not it could be something else. It is expensive to just start replacing parts willy-nilly and would really like to get the problem resolved so I can drive the car again. Other than the noise, the car seems to operate fine.
Any advice would be appreciated.
