Report: Shim to Correct Chirping Timing Belt
Honda Pilot Problem
Model Years Affected: 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010
Engine Affected: 3.5L V6
Average Mileage: 61,000 mi (27,000 mi - 80,000 mi)
A chirp noise from the timing belt area can be caused by a tilted idler pulley. Installing a corrective shim from Honda will commonly correct this issue.

I had a chirping sound from the belt area which became worse when the vehicle was cold or in humid weather. I replaced the accessory belt, but this didn't stop the problem. I ended up having the dealer replace the timing belt, water pump, and install the shim kit so it doesn't happen again. It's been 6 months now and I haven't heard a problem since.

Chirping noise when idling comes and goes. Dealer said it was just cause it was an older vehicle. Its a 2008!! I have a 1996 tacoma it doesn't chirp.
