Fixed my engine chirp in my 2003 TDI Jetta

Thanks to all who helped me troubleshoot and ID the chirping in my TDI. After removing the serpentine belt it was apparent that I did not have a clutched pully on my alternator. I bought an INA pulley and a new belt off of amazon and ordered the Metalnerd MN3400 alternator bit set and changed out the pulley in place. Now it works like a champ! The resources on this site are awesome.

And what really rocks is when people follow up with conclusions! Great job!

Congrats to OP, and #2 x2.

Excellent

I'm curious - what did the pulley & belt cost on Amazon?

Google it.. You dont have the amazon app? I would be lost without it as i do 99% of my shopping online.

Thanks Greenlantern. I was more curious as to what the newbie saved in the big picture. It's all good - he'll find that amazon vendor in NC soon enough with all the good prices...
