OMG! What is this sound?
All-
First, happy Thanksgiving to each and everyone of you!
I'm a bit freaked out and hoping someone out there knows what this noise is from nowhere.
I started my car this morning- Garaged, and yes baby'd beyond words.
This sound started up from the rear that I have never heard before (:12 - :30) & I have no idea whether to be freaked out or what? (attached) to me it sounds like a belt (hopefully). Listen for the "clicking sound"
Yesterday, I was driving and the check oil light came on. I immediately stopped. Pulled over, and did an oil check- all good. Drove to gas station, got gas, then drove home. no sounds. Until this this.
Any ideas?

What the heck is this sound from no where?
Thank you for your reply!
Here's another clip if anyone has any idea.
I'm just wondering if I should drive it to the shop or not?
I have to start it to move it, so do I drive it there?
Arrrgh!

How far is the shop?
If it were me, and I wasn't mechanically inclined, I'd drive to the shop. Worst case is the bad beading/whatever takes out the belt and you have to get a tow. If you don't drive it to the shop you have to get a tow as well.. so I'd drive it (assuming its not like 100 miles away)

Definitely a pulley sound. Look under the car at the back and see if there is evidence of dried coolant at the water pump weep hole. Also, check the coolant level in the reservoir.

Not knowing the car's mileage, I would strongly suggest replacing all three belt idlers, and the serpentine belt for economy of repair.
if you have basic hand tools, this is probably one of the easier jobs to do at home, less than an hour.
Here's a Youtube video if you would like to learn about replacing the idlers:
Water pumps last about 60-75K miles so possibly replace preemptively if you have a shop do the work.

Hi!
The car only has 44,000 miles so I will do the pre-emptive work! I used to live in house and had tools galore! Now i live in an apartment, so it's not so easy to do the work. Especially since I now have minimal tools. I'll mention your kind comment to my mechanic, and I'll reply back.
Thanks! Enjoy the rest of the weekend!
