Vehicle begins to squeak while driving after warming up. Does not squeak on initial startup or first few minutes of drive. Noticed crankshaft pulley is wobbling.

I've replaced: belt, power steering pump and pulley, idler pulley and pulley that bolts directly to engine.

BMRFIXIT,

Thanks for the info.
I wasn't sure what you meant by the pulley being in two pieces but now understand. There is a thin rubber ring on the outer edge of the inner pulley and the inner pulley/rubber ring is inserted into a larger pulley all of which is called the vibration damper. I'll purchase one and install and let you know how it goes.

Thanks.
