It's loose

how can i tighten it?
is it easy?
any links to threads you can give me on here?

your power steering pulley looks to be spinning unbalanced too
you can just loosen the bolt holding the power steering pulley (if you think its the power steering belt making the noise) and use something like the L tool for taking off your lugnuts to put pressure on the pulley while re-tightening the bolt

yeah there is a belt that is spinning unevenly, that is the power steering one?
hopefully its just that one and nothing to big.

yeah the pulley/belt that you first showed in the video is of the power steering belt

so maybe the fact that its moving all crazy is making that noise. ill look into how to fix it.
the belts look new. i can see writing on it like the brand name or something like that. maybe he didnt tighten it right,
how will i know if my timming is off?

 

[2slo4u]

if lyour timing is off the car would run like crap or not run at all

 

[AndrewH.]

oh okay, so since it starts right up that means its fine?
will me tightening the bell mess up the timming or i should be fine?
thanks a lot for your help man.

it'll be fine..the power steering belt wont have anything to do with the timing belt..depending on the model you have or options the car has you'll have the a/c belt, ps belt, timing belt, and the alternator belt

its a Dx model
has power steering and ac.
