Supra Noise

[davebo]

I have a 1987 Supra. When I drive it for a bit I hear a screeching sound. It sounds like a belt, but when I slow down and idle the sound stops. Again it doesn't start right away, but after driving a bit. Any help would be appreciated

It could well be a belt, have a look see what condition they're in e.t.c

Could also be the air con pump dying or the waterpump.

Noises are always hard to diagnose over the interweb :)

Does it only do it when the car is moving?

does it increase with revs, or vehicle speed?

Yes only when it's moving. Revving does nothing. When I come to a stop it decreases likes it's winding down.

hmmmmmm weird.....

Stumped me!!

when did you last change the brake pads???? if not how much have they got left on them???

[nws25]

Possible wheel bearing maybe???

whining diff ?

Check your diff dampers.. although this usually doesnt make too much difference. Theyre just in front of the back wheels.. basically a metal block attached to a bit of rubber that doesnt appear to do anything.. they sometimes fall off (although from experience they seem to do sod all anyway).

if its not the wear indicators on the breaks, ckeck your wheel hub nuts.. too
