Hi Phil,

You chime in at the right spot of time!

Now that you've mentioned it, I think it could be the tensioner bearing too. The OP had changed the serpentine belt by the way and noise still there!

Agree with you about the belt should be taken off for a while. Should spin the tensioner bearing to see any undue play. Temporarily run the engine without belt might help too!

Agree with you the chime does somehow mask the listening experience.

You said stethoscopes might help, and I say a can of WD40 does too! Just spray at where the noise seems to come from, not on rubber things, but on any spinning part ie the spindle/shaft. It will evaporate away later.

Meanwhile, do stay safe and Covid free!

Regards,
Amarin
