So this last week my car started making funny noises, sounded like the A/C was going out. One day it just stopped, didn't make the noise at all, I thought "sweet, must have just been the cold weather" Then on Friday, it started making this horrible screaching sound like a belt would make, and it smelled like burning rubber, I parked the car as soon as I got home, took a look and couldn't see much so I closed the hood and went inside. Long story short, My fiancee really wanted to get to her parents house, we took her car and were gone till Sunday just before the game.
So, after the Vikes dominated on Sunday (eat it hughes!!
) I took it for a quick spin around the block to see if the noise came back and it didn't.... I had no school today, so I brought the car in and used my $19 oil change coupon at the Subaru dealership and told them about the noise.
This is what they found along with the remains of my A/C belt:
Apparently, Subaru thought it would be a great idea to use a plastic pulley. Not just any plastic pulley either....A 50 fucking dollar peice of plastic!!!
Anyways, that is all, and no I still haven't been able to get the new exhaust pieces on.
