At around 36900 miles, started to hear my car get this low but annoying chirping/squeaking noise at idle. I know it's coming from under the hood but I can't tell what's causing it. Any ideas? Thanks.

Probably one of your belts needs to be replaced.

I agree. You can try lubricating the belts first and see if it'll go away. Sometimes the belts might just be loose.

remember when i got those useless AEM pullies?

I think that may be the problem but i'm not sure. They shouldn't be making noises cuz they're new belts... Should I use something like WD-40 to lubricate the belts?

Would wd 40 make the belts slip at all, because my fathers cadillac is having the same problem and i have to drive it when the weather is bad and that noise is so annoying.

ive had the same problem... its a ticking noise...and ive taken it to the dealer and it is the EGR... exaust gas recirculation sollonoid...

normal ones shouldnt tick as much but abnormal ones tick louder...

hopethis helps and ask ur dealer to check it out cuz im getting my replacced under warantee...

if it is the belts that are squeaking something such as wd40 might make them slip. what works for me is putting a little bit of water on the belts and then rubbing soap on them. takes the noise away. hope that helps.
