Engine Noise



  172 cup
Hi all, well basically i posted on here a while ago regarding a whining noise coming from what appeared to be a belt/tensioner. The car was due a new cam and aux belt change, so i have now had this done, including the dephaser, but the nose is still there. It is exactly the same noise as before, almost supercharged sounding. It is there from start up and gets higher pitched with revs.

Any help would be appreciated. I am based in Hereford so if anyone could also recommend any specialists nearby. Thanks

Also forgot to mention that since the belt change etc, the toxic fume light is on solid. There is a strong smell in the ca,r of a chemically burning type smell, more noticable with the heaters on!

Thanks

That noise usually comes from the bottom idler on the aux belt did the guy just replace the belt or did he put a full kit on it?
