Default Update on drivetrain noise...

Well after trying to isolate what exactly is causing the noise in the drivetrain, I'm a little closer. Apparently the noise is generated at 800 rpm and 2200 rpm consistanly in ANY gear...it may be generated at higher rpms as well but the engine noise drowns it out. The best way to describe it is as if a belt was slipping w/ a bit of a metallic sound. If anyone has any ideas as to what the hell this is it would be greatly appreciated. Thx again!

Probably your belt tensioner.
