Do not over tighten though as it could cause other failures.

THANK YOU!
it happened to my friend's 01 SE and i couldnt find what it was for the life of me (it really did sound like it was coming from the wheel)
although im half convinced its something else because it happens when the wheel is straight on her car and sometimes is continuous no matter how i drive, except it will stop when i drop below about 10 mph
unless this is because the pump or pump pulley is failing altogether, but that would be shitty on such a new car
i wonder if it would happen anyways on all b15 sentras because my friend hasnt touched her belts or anything yet(only 40k miles so they are good still)
