[$$$ RICH123Nick $$$]

Hey guys i got a marble like sound coming from my Engine. I recently started to hear it after i changed the serptine belt. And thats not the only thing , I got a squeaking noise when i turn my wheel. Could it be the bearing ? Please help

Thanks,
Nick

The squeaky noise could be low power steering fluid, however that would be more of a whine, unless that is what you meant? Can you describe the "marble like sound" a little more such as what RPM you hear it at, if it's there all of the time or only some times, how loud it is, ect?

When i step on the gas at 1500-2500 rpms or when im idling in traffic ...and i checked the power steering fluid

Is it like a quick tapping sound? It could be a weak belt tensioner. Start the engine and look at the belt tensioner and see if it touches anything as the engine runs

It gets louders as I accelerate then goes away. Also when I brake when I'm going slow it gets a little louder. If you pay attention you can tell.

What do you guys think cam shaft or cam tensionor ?

can you upload a video of the sound to get a better idea?

take the serp belt off, start the car. If the noise is still there than its in the motor. If not, than its one of your accessories.

Did that ... Its in the motor ... Maybe the rocker arms ?

ah no good, that sucks. Your close to Mustang Magic arent you? Swing it by there and have them take a quick look for you.
