Squeky Alternator Belt aqfter only 20,000km in 2 years...

(1/2) > >>

mambo:
Anyone had this problems. I know this is a wear and tear item. But my mileage is less than 20,000km for a 2 year old car. If i got back to TCM to try to claim warranty i think they are also going to tell me its wear and tear. But i dun believe an alternator belt only last that long. Its squeaky when  the engine is cold and today after a car wash it was super loud! i think water got in the belt made it worst or something.
Drive bout a min or 2 sound went away. Have a feeling i have to change the belt and pulley together on my own. Anyone change their alternator belt before?

iwilly:
juz need to tighten the alternator belt n spray some wd 40 on it will do.

Toalson:
Dont think WD 40 is appropriate. A proper belting grease is preferred.

thx1138:
hey i think i got the same problem and was about to ask in the forum.
the squeaky sound issit like a bird sound that goes "chip chip chip"?
and yes the sound gets louder after a wash and after driving for a couple of minutes its gone.

thx1138:
