Weird squeaking noise
Im getting an intermittent sweaky noise coming from the front end, passenger side of the car. Im not sure how long its been going on, you cant hear it until you roll down the windows and the car's stopped, or you're physically outside the vehicle when its running. It sounds like a belt or a fan thats screwing up, but of course when you bring to the dealer, the problem didnt happen. The service dept said they adjusted one of the belts, and that when it gets wet, it could generate the noise. As soon as I got the car back and made it home, the sound had come back
It doesnt sound very good at all, and I'm worried if it persists, it could cause some damage
anyone have anything similar happening?

Woo, brought to dealer today and it actually made the noise for them to hear, so hopefully will have a resolution later today/tomorrow and will post the findings...got a shiny 2008 MDX for a loaner and the thing is a beast (MDX is probably going to be the next Acura I buy)

Got my car back from the dealer...they said they had to add a "taped shim kit" to one of the timing belts and they say everything will be ok, apparently the MDX has this issue, and they didnt know the TL was affected too, but so far so good, we'll see over the next few days

After googling the "taper shim kit" I found a thread in the 3G TL boards that's the same problem problem I had, I guess add the 09 TL to that list
