Okay some background first. I recently replaced the tired motor in my 05 with a 30K mile takeout engine from LKQ. I replaced the clutch, throwout, pressure plate, friction disc and flywheel while I was there for good measure. After getting it all buttoned up I have this weird squeak. I tired replacing the ribbed idler, both smooth idlers and the belt. The damn squeak is still there. I used a stethoscope to try and pin point it coming from an accessory or pulley and can't find anything. The car runs great, runs smooth, shifts perfect and overall very happy besides this fucking noise. I am still in the process of breaking in the clutch but I don't think that is it. Maybe you guys and take a listen and let me know what you think.
