2005 Caravan, around 160000km. Went down into town, got fuel and stopped at the store. When I started the van again it started making this terrible howling noise (see linked video).
Drove normally on the way home, sort of changes in pitch a bit when it shifts but otherwise, nothing different but the new noise (doesn't change when steering, etc).
Drove by a neighbor's on the way home, asked him what he figured, he suggested to take off the serpentine belt and try the pulleys. Loosened the belt, they all seemed fine but the idler and tensioner pulleys made a bit of a growl so went into the parts store and grabbed some new ones, plus a new belt (was a little overdue).
Changed them out, same noise
Any ideas??
