The above is a video of my car, 2007 Kia Carrens. I absolutely love it. Anyway for about two weeks it's been making this noise, it speeds up when I accelerate. Anyone have any idea what this could be? I'm thinking a loose belt, if it's the case then I can easily fix it as I have the tools and I'm a handy person.

Had bonnet open and car running, the sound is definitely coming from the serpentine belt0

Can't play video at the moment, could it perhaps be the cam belt tensioner?
When was the cam belt last changed?
Do you have air-con? does the noise change if you turn it off?“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”
