Engine Whine And Click

Recommended Posts

Have a 99 ES300. Lately when I start it the engine's been whining loudly and it sounds like it's going to die. When I open the hood up, I can hear a clicking sound coming from the engine. The weird behavior started happening since the weather has gotten colder, but even after driving it around for a while, the sound is still present. Any ideas?

Sick your head down into the engine bay & triangulate the position of the noise.

Otherwise we can't really help you, we're all just guessing.

Whining can be any of a thousand things rotating, but most likely a belt, or something belt driven. Ticking could be anything moving that isn't lubricated.
