That thread isn't even close. However, I have heard the machine gun noise before, good to have an answer to that question.

Some you guys are so serious. New part was a joke, and no I never heard of the thread that you posted.

Have a cat or other small pet that recently went missing?

Not uncommon in the cooler months for cats to crawl into engine bays for warmth, and when that belt gets going....bad day.

I think it was the Center force clutch bearing that does that. lol.. jk. But I haven't heard of that issue before.

Our cat isn't small, 16lbs, I think it would throw something if she crawled inside.

Haven't heard the noise again and I purposely skipped autostart and braved the 40 degree weather to listen. Nada. Hopefully it was a one time thing, but experience tells me otherwise.

@ "braving" the 40 degree weather If it's in the 40's I'm in short sleeves for sure and may be driving with the windows down

I was thinking the same thing. It's 30 here, supposed to get to 40 and I am glad for the nice day
