my car just started squeeling when i come to a stop
i dont know what it is and its dark so i cant see at the moment but it starts at about 10 kp/h and doesnt seem to be affected by rpm and its not the brakes ? wen i slow down to a stop it cotinues for about 3 or 4 seconds after the car has come to a complete stop
im hopeing its a loose belt or something else easy il check it tomoro wen i have some light |

Re: my car just started squeeling when i come to a stop
It is squealing because you are torturing her...
Seriously now, the squealing usually comes from alternator belt, either its tensioner is loose or the crankshaft pulley is starting to crack, or some bolt is loose and making the pulley loose.... Check them out first.

Re: my car just started squeeling when i come to a stop
Ive never known a loose belt to NOT be affected by RPMs. But it cant be your brakes if it does it after you stop.
So my diagnosis is: You have a gerbil trapped in the filter box, and you're scaring the bleep out of it when you go and stop. Let the lil bleeper go and pray he doesnt sue.... |

I assumed it was from the belts, since the word "squealing" is directly related to the engine belts (same as barking to the dog ) Let us know

Re: my car just started squeeling when i come to a stop
They are the same. Pretty much any EJ series subaru engine will have the same crank pulley.
