so i got my car back after my mechanic changed the timing belt but now i can hear this weird noise when the rpm's increase say when i push my gas pedal. It is a high pitched sound. actually my 5fse engine sounds like it had 200 horse power now smile.gif. Well guys any ideas about what could be wrong? maybe an overtighten belt. I know i should take my car back to my mechanic but i just want some opinions so if he lies to me and try to make some more on me saying..... ohhhh well this is wrong is gonna cost you now this much..i can reply with an intelligent answer. To be honest a just expended 450 dollars on this timing belt job and don't wanna expend more.

Thanks guys in advance.

hey all

i've got the same problem as you!

after getting my timing belt changed at 100000 it started making a sound... so i took it straight back to the mechanic and he told me that it was because the belt was still being stretched...

it's now on 116000 and the sound is still there... i don't know what to do.. but i think i've driven it too far to take it back to complain...

if you have only just got the problem i think you should seriously get it checked out...
