My 2005 Yaris has been making a particular noise. It started doing it just once in a while at around 25,000 miles and gradually got more frequent. I now have around 73,000 miles on it. The noise sounds like the bearings are going bad in the pully wheel on either the generator or one of the other ones. It does it at all speeds. When it does it and if I let off the gas it stops. As soon as I give it gas again the noise starts.

One the alternator not generator, whens the last time you greased the pulleys? And check if the belt has tension if so tighten her up it could be that too.

How do you 'grease pulleys'? Should I put grease on the belt?

Not on the belt, but when you look at the pulley itself and it has a screw holding it inplace not grease my bad with some WD40, I was in a rush my bad
