i have a horrible whinning noise that sounds like a supercharger spooling every time i accelrate then take my foot of the gas and coast all you hear is the whinning very loud then quiter and quiter as the rpms drop, i also have a squeking noise comming from my rear right end also when acclerating and braking, im bringing it o the mechnaics on wensday i was hoping maybe you guys had an idea
i have read somewhere that a supercharger-like whining noise can be a sign that you need to replace your timing chain tensioner. if you're still under warranty have the dealer check it out...

If it changes with RPM then I would concur with above statement regarding tensioner.

You got your secondary timing chain and tensioner replaced twice? I thought you got your belt tensioner replaced twice.

No, not my secondary timing chain, lol, sorry. Yeah, belt and tensioner.
