Please reply to this post with your experiences regarding the Serpentine Drive Belt that came with your TRD Supercharger Kit.

The Service Manager at the dealership I had the supercharger installed in says chirps and squeaks coming from the belt is completely normal. According to the supercharger's installation manual, the supercharger will have a slight rattling and or chirping sound especially at idle and that these are normal sounds for this type of supercharger. That is correct, my supercharger does make rattling and chirping sounds. Nowhere does it say it is normal for my belt to chirp and rattle.

Please post your experiences with the belt chirping, possible causes, and if you feel this is a normal sound. I have a video clip of my belt's chirp here.

Thanks in advance for your help,
Jason
