The fan belt on my VQ40 V6 is squeeling its guts out continuously and always on the alternator pully.I have just replaced the belt tensioner thinking that could be it. Nope nothing just as bad.
Went and bought belt dressing today and gave that a try. its ok for now but I just know it wont last.
Just ordered 2 x OEM belts from the US via Evilbay for the grand total of $55 Aus delivered . It cost me $65 trade for my last non genuine belt .
Still not sure why its always the alternator pulley. Sure 75,000kms shouldnt have worn out the pulley. I have checked all bearings etc and allignment and everything seems fine.
Got it down to a fine art now lol can swap a belt out in about 10 minutes
