Hey guys,
My ute has recently started playing up, it started with a squeak coming from the engine bay (could not find where). And now every now and then it will hesitate and squeel for a second.
Any help or ideas would be much appreciated, |

Well...the squeal sound sounds like its belt related. Doesnt really explain the hesitation tho!
When is the hesitation more prevalent? Heavy acceleration from standing start? Slow building revs? Overtaking manouvere? |

I have checked belts and pulleys,
The hesitation tends to happen when climbing through the revs. |
