wildvlad Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 yup it was raining pretty hard before. I might be wrong and I never expected that on Lexus, but sometimes if the rubber in belts getting wet, belt may slip on pulley and you'll hear a nosie. After rubber gets dry everything will be ok. To make sure check belts. Just visually how they are and how they are tight... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
