I have a 1991 Eagle Talon TSI front wheel drive. It runs great with 85,000 miles. When it gets hot I hear a slight grinding sound coming from the timing belt housing. Only when I sit at a stop light for a minute or two. It happens from about 2,200 rpm to about 3,400 rpm and then goes away. On cold days it will not happen at all. I have a new timing belt. Flushed radiator and fresh oil. Not sure what it can be. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, Eric

I figured it out myself... It was the water pump.... fixed it :)
