When the hoods open and I'm looking at the engine, its coming from the left side (as I'm facing the engine just to make sure ya'll got that) somewhere down by the belts. Buddy of mine took a look at said it might be the oil pump but I dunno....I don't know the slightest thing about working under the hood. Any help will be appreciated

 

Check your PCV valve located on the right valve cover. (left, facing the engine) Some aftermarket PCV valves tend to make a loud noise.

 

ya like i mentioned i have no experience under a hood so I couldn't even begin to guess what a PCV valve is or where its at

 

Not trying to be a smartass or insult you, but you may be best off taking it to a mechanic. I highly doubt it's the oil pump, sounds like your buddy doesn't know that much either. If it's down by the belts, it may be one of the pulleys or driven devices, maybe the alternator, power steering pump, A/C compressor/clutch, or the idler pulley.

 

ya I thought the oil pump was a little far fetched myself......I myself thought it might be the alternator (i at least know what that looks like lol) but anyway, i'll pry take it in tomorrow, its still under warranty. anyway thanks for the help guys
