Hi
I had my Celica GT for around 2 months now, one of the forst things i wanted to do with it is get the cam belt changed as it was last done at 40000, its now on 89000. also got a few oil leaks repaired, the bill ended up being rather large! I was wondering if you need to wear in new cam belts a bit as my car seems to be making a whining noise since i got it back, the car feels fine its just the noise is a little disconcerting. so now im getting a bit paranoid that the garage didnt do it properly! is there much chance that a mechanic could mess a job like this up? ritch |

its not that loud when first using the, hardly noticeable, it gets louder as time goes on and then gets more noticable pulling away than at higher speeds. its not really high pitched, hard to explain its just a mechanical sounding whining that varies depending on the speed of the car.
