Hi Dave,

When you say your AFM is "still working", what test have you done? Or do you mean your car is running fine and there is no check engine light?

Hi Sergey,

Were you ever able to resolve this issue? Was the ohmmeter good and the AFM bad?

Yes, sounds like one of the pulleys. Remove the serpentine belt and make sure the squealing stops.

Hi Ralliart,

I found the squealing occurred when the engine warmed up. But it really doesn't matter. Run the car and when the squealing starts, remove the oil filler cap. If the squealing goes...

Turns out I don't need a new DME. My error code 1286 problem (and a raft of other error codes) was not due to a flaky DME. It was due to intermittent misfire from old spark plug wires.

Hi,

How did you finally fix the 1286 error code? Did it require a new ECU? Or was it just bad gas or water in the cylinder?

Thanks,

It turns out to be the crankcase breather (or vent) valve! Go figure! Check out "Loud Squealing at Idle" from July 2007.
