hi i have a problem with my car. it has been with my mechanic for a week and just got it back with the problem not fixed. the problem is while im sitting waiting at a light in drive the front of the car is making a screetching grinding noise, it also does this in reverse.
my mechanic dropped the tranny twice. he thought it might have been a seal that needed to be replaced and the flex plate. so he fixed both and stil the same problem is happening just not as loud .
please help any suggestions would be great

Could the noise be coming from any of the belt driven accessories such as the alt, water pump, power steering pump...?
