A car that screeches should always get immediate attention. Although the situation isn’t necessarily dire, belts, pulleys, and tensioners are what keep your engine and other components running properly, and damage to one of them is likely the culprit here.

Common reasons for this to happen:

Drive or auxiliary belts are worn

The most frequent cause of a car making screeching sounds is that the drive belts or auxiliary belts are old and need to be replaced. When your belts start to wear out and fray, the oils within them will come out and encourage all forms of screeching and slapping sounds.

Tensioners and pulleys are worn

The pulleys and belt tensioners that keep your belt in place can also wear out over the course of time. The tensioner helps keep the belt in place and under the right alignment, while the rubber inside your pulley helps absorb the vibrations that are generated from your engine. If this rubber part wears out, your belt may also begin to have wear issues.

Wrong torque, alignment or belt size

If the torque and alignment on the belt tensioner and pulley are incorrect, your belt may not have the proper pressure on it. Also, there are times when the wrong size belt has been installed. Different engines require different belts. If a belt is too big, it will start making sounds as well.

What to expect:

A top-rated mobile mechanic will come to your home or office to determine the source and cause of the screeching noise, and will then provide a detailed inspection report that includes the scope and cost of the necessary repairs.

How it's done:

The mechanic will inspect the belts to see whether they are cracked, worn, or frayed. From there, the tensioners and pulleys may be looked at as well to make sure they are up to spec. Minimal wear and a good fit make all the difference with a screeching belt.

How important is this service?

Belt, pulleys, and tensioners make the difference between a quiet, perfectly running car, and a noisy one that may later result in a long list of repairs. Belts can snap due to age or improper installation, and big things like your engine can break, so it's advisable to get this issue diagnosed as soon as possible.

Infiniti FX35 V6-3.5L - Starter - Fort Worth, Texas
Keith was very polite and courteous and seemed quite knowledgeable about the service being provided (which was installing a starter). He was quite respectful given he ended up having to wait over 30 minutes for me to give him access to the car (he didn’t call that he’d arrived - he texted and knocked on the door, which I heard neither)! The real issue now is that in order for the ignition in my car to start to you have to hold the key over for about 5 seconds for the car to start. In the 14 years I’ve had the car it’s never been hesitant to start. The new starter may be defective.

Richard McCarthy is the guy who inspected and serviced my car last week. It was my first time using YourMechanic and I feel lucky to have Richard assigned to my request. He is super knowledgeable and detail oriented. He is extremely patient on answering all my newbie questions and I think partly because he knows what he is doing and same time he really loves cars and car work. He not only did what's listed in the appointment but also explained to me why and how things should be monitored and maintained in the future, which is so helpful. He as well pointed out few places that may encounter problems in the future on the car that certainly reminds me to properly maintain the car continuously. It's the best car service I had so far in last 10 years that for first time I learned so much about my car within a couple hours. I appreciate Richard's service and quality work. I'd recommend him to my friends and in fact I have done so.
