We have a 2000 Dodge Caravan 3.3L v6 automatic. We just replaced the water pump, serp belt, and the hoses right there with it and some plug underneath where you change the oil from. What I have a question about is the squeeling it is making. It used to only make the noise until it was warmed up. Now, it is all the time whether you are in park or in gear, and especially if you accelate, its even louder. Can hear it mainly on the left side, the drivers's side. What is causing that?? I would like to repair it so that it stops. Thank you very much.
