R33 Squeaky Aircon.

[Nick.]

Hey, I just bought an r33 gts type s. and yeah, when we got the car the guy said the belts only squeaked coz it was wet, obviously not. (how would these belts even get wet your washing the car? lol )

Drove the car back from bris to vic, and it would only squeak once every like 30 or so minutes... but now its squeaks like every time (only when aircon is on this happens) i can sit the car in neutral, and ease the throttle and between 2000-2500rmp it well have a squeak. but the worrieing thing about it is that it has like a rythm to it.. so it does its thing "eee e eee ee...(then pause)...ee ee" always has the last two "ee"

Have a general idea what it is (aircon ) but just wondering if from experiance with these cars you guys could shed more light issue and if it happened to you, how did you get it fixed?

Thanks Nick.

Can you apply some 'Rosin' to the belt and see if it stops immediately?

You can get some from a music store that sells violins.

If the noise stops, it's likely that the belt isn't seated correctly, or it was simply slipping > check tautness.

Checklist:-

1) tautness

2) alignment of belt as the A/C is on

3) weakness or fraying of belt

4) grip of belt on pulley (with a cake of rosin; don't need to apply much)

All the best!
