This problem has really occurred since I have owned the vehicle, however taken it in twice and nothing ever found. What I am hearing is sometimes on rainy days.. sounds like the belt (fan, serpetine, not sure) is slipping.. sounds like a slipping fan belt during hot days as well. Just never know.. I also hear, what sounds like belt rubbing.. cant describe the sound, but when I apply pressure to the gas pedal, i hear the increase of this noise as well.. it happens more often when a cold start occurs and the first 20 or so miles driven.. sometimes it loud and lasts a few second.. other times it sounds like its a soft noise and with me all day when I'm driving.. I've gotten used to it, but really would like to know how to diagnose and get fixed.
The dealership basically has seen me twice on this in the past and thinks Im crazy.. but then again, most of the guys in the service department are strange too.. great work, just strange personalities.. so what can I say.. HELP.. if you have similar problem, Id like to know so it can be reported and this complaint updated accordingly.
