Hi all. I changed my belts less than 30,000 miles ago. Now i am hearing what literally sounds like birds chirping in the morning from my engine bay. I have made several adjustments to the belt area but the noise still persists. I looked at the belts themselves and see no obvious signs of wear and tear. Its a 15 min job and belts are cheap enough. Should i just go ahead and replace them again?
 
you might have a pulley problem. I noticed the fx belts need to be really tight, once when i changed it the sound was horrible upon start, i tightened it well and it stopped. Did you tighten it well?

Best way is to have a friend start it early morning with the engine bay open for u to hear and see what the actuall problem is
 
I thought I had mine tightened down well also...

Try giving them another attempt at tightening.
 
I had that squeal 2 years ago and fixed it with new belts and some tightening. My current noise sounds nothing like that. Best way i can describe it is birds chirping in the morning. I will look over it again this weekend.
 
I replaced my pulleys yesterday due to hearing a noise kinda like a hissing sound at idle I throw it at neutral rev it goes away comes back again. Also when I shut the car It kinda sounds like a cat meowing in there. Any ideas
