Smile Let's Play Guess That Sound!

Hi, first thread! I feel like such the newb

Anyways, my dilema....I've just recently purchased an '02 MP5 w/ 63k miles. After about a 20 minute drive I notice something squeeking or squeeling coming from under the hood, sounds like it's coming from the a/c compressor side, it stops when I hit the gas but comes back when i back off...It's a God awful noise but only happens when it's good and hot and has happened with the a/c on and off...any ideas? The belt looks fine and is tight....thanks in advance

I just had a strange sound issue recently, turned out to be the water pump. It sounded like a rock stuck in the belt. The water pump failed because someone replaced the belts and over tightened them.
