    still couldnt hear anythying, was just loudness and screetching, the phone cant handle the noise.

    If you got a real camera I would try that.

    nah not atm it is terrible for sound though. it almost sounds like someone grinding gears in a manual transmission but much more subtle and consistent would the same symptons for a coupler appear for a bad supercharger I'm not to clear on the other inner workings of them but the only other thing I've read is that it could be the belt tension er that would present the same noise as a coupler going bad had I not seen the teeth of the gears attached to the coupler today id say it was scraping its own teeth off but it really seems to change pitch or nearly dissapear entirely while driving and not gassing or idleing but anytime im merely coasting trying to listen for it I hear nothing and anytime I gas it trying to hear the supercharger my exhaust drowns it out but anytime im idling or at low revs its incredibly noticeable
    I'm sorry officer I didnt know I couldn't do that

    nah that was part of our troubleshooting with the stethoscope also checked all the pulleys to try to isolate the noise and its coming from the intake end of the sc.

    thanx for the tip I have no need of help making messes I've nearly perfected the art . garage has the stains to prove it . Sometimes briefly and fleetingly I miss my dsm
