weird rubbing sound...

i think i've given up all hope on my car...here's whats up. i got it back today, ran great for about 60 miles then all of a sudden there is this high pitched rubbing noise coming from the engine...it gets louder and more high pitched when engine speed increases. i even recorded it on video camera if you guys wanna hear it. here is the link.. (it's in a .zip file. the actual video is a .wmv)

had to do this cause the sound it is making is kind of hard to describe...but it makes my engine sound really horrible when i rev. :(

thanks for the help

ok my mechanic said that the bearing spun on the silent shaft or something? anyway he said he's still diagnosing the problem...but what does that mean anyway?

sounds like you also need airflow grease, just ask you mechanic...

the link doesnt work or is it just me? :banghead:

it doesn't work for me either, but i already heard it a couple days ago. i just felt bad cuz no one replied, so i made a suggestion...

try right clicking the link then clicking "save as"....doesn't seem to work any other way

Might just be a wheel bearing.

well my mechanic had to order me another short block...he said he's done messing around with it so he just ordered a new one lol...he said the sound i was hearing was the bearing spinning. oh joy, another 2 weeks or so without my car. :( :( :(

it sounds like the balance shaft, but it may not be the shaft itself but just a bushing. Its really hard to tell since there are numerous pullies and rotating objects on an engine. If the balance shaft either front or rear is making that noise, they aren't easy to replace. Usally the motor will shake a little more often if they are unbalanced but not if the bushings are grinding
