My car is making a whistling sound. i took it to my mechanic about a mouth ago and he said the pulley needed to be replaced. it started up agian. the whistling sound only does it when it is in idle. then when u hit the gas pedal it stop then when it goes back to idle it starts agian.

I have the exact same problem... It comes from the left side of the enginebay were all the belts are, so I thought it would have something to do with that. My engine has 162.000 miles on it and still runs strong, the only problem is that enoying sound at idle...

Me have a 1995 Nissan Maxima QX 3.0i-24v V6 5 speed manual (e-spec)
