id the startup and the noise is still there. Used my stethoscope, and checked the power steering pump, and belt tensioner but didn't hear any noise with those. Having a hard time putting the belt back on (see attached photos). Also, to line up the top12mm bolt hole to the bracket that has the nut attached to bracket. Trying to keep from disconnecting the wire and the plug ,on the alternator to make more working space to see so that I can line up the top alternator bolt. Does anyone know how get this bolt Top hole for alt.
lined up an easier way also, using a 14mm. closed end ratchet type wrench with a larger open end set at the end or top of the 14mm. wrench and this is held with a tie down hooked on the ac. tubes, for tensioner relieve (WORKS good)?. Noticed that the 2005 has a different bracket that lines this up.. Lastly, trying to attaché a mp3 recording of the noise mentioned with no luck
