Hi all,
My 2002 XR8 has developed a squeak in the air con pump, it makes the noise all the time (not just when engaged). I squirted RP7 into the front of the pulley and it nailed the noise for a short time. Is this just an idler bearing or something more serious? Any info would be appreciated. Cheers Slymo |

Sounds like the belt. I shouldn't stress.
Cheers, Mike

Yeah mine does it do, just the belt I think and replacing it will do sod all. I've learned to live with mine and just turn the stereo up a bit louder
