'99 S70, 61K miles. Notiecd yesterday a tapping noise, does not sound like metal-on-metal, but not sure. Apparently RPM-related in frequency, from the engine compartment. Noticeable only when I am in front of the car (Not loud). No idea how long it's been there--usually don't have engine running when I'm out of the car. Sudden temp drop yesterday, from 40-50 degrees to about 12 degrees. This am , checked it and it is not audible when the engine is cold, but becomes more so when the engine is warmed up. (Also have the usual cold-weather moaning when I turn at low speeds).
Serp belt on order; car has the 105K mile timing belt. Any ideas?
