Default squeaky alternator? - 04-05-2004 , 05:30 PM






Past experience suggests a slipping belt causes the squeaks... I tightened
up the alternator belt on my 92 Jetta, and it was fine. While driving it
though under load it started to sound (not too bad, but there)... when I had
the belt loose I felt the side to side action of the alternator pulley.
There seemed to be some play there . could the thing be on its way out? It
still charges, and the light isn't on
