07 HB AC Compressor Bearing - Toyota Yaris Forums

I know its not the belt because after the car warms up the squealing stops. I had this issue too with an Acura Integra once, but I never got around to fixing the problem with that car. It's hard to determine which wheel bearing squeals. I've sprayed belt conditioner thinking it was the belt but that didnt help.

I just recently changed the Alternator and Belt, so that is checked off my list. My tension is good not too tight not too loose on the belt. I am wondering if its the water pump bearing. I will try that next since that part is cheaper to replace than the AC compressor.

I got this car used with 52k miles for $4800. Interior is clean. The bad part is the car comes from water damage so there are some electrical issues i need to fix that deal with sensors but it's not a big deal.

I am guessing some water found itself in the bearings. This is why I replaced the alternator. Overall the car is good.

What do you think about this pump?
$46
