Default bad noise xkr 2000

Hey,

Who can help me recognize this sound. The engine runs nicely stationary.

I have already removed the simple things and these are all good.


Any tips?

Thank you very much.

Sounds like a fan to me. Obviously not running try pulling the fans around to see if they wobble at all. I think its definitely something around the front of the car.

I also notice you have a bolt missing from the Supercharger body..................

It is not a fan. Can it be the big end if running stationery is perfect?

Pull the supercharger belt and see if the sound goes away. My bet is the supercharger front coupling is failed.

Good call. Could well be that. Did you notice that missing bolt on the SC? Looks like someone else thinks the same.

I didn't pay close attention to anything but the audio. If it is the front center, that is not supposed to have a bolt in it as confirmed by the group some months ago.
