This usually happens when the truck is hot. The whine seems to be coming from the air filter housing (sounds like a vacuum cleaner). The idle will drop really low and sometimes the engine stalls. The filter is brand new.

Also, when I look down at the serpentine belt it looks like one of the pulleys is buckled, as the belt has quite a bit of lateral wobble.

Vehicle has 93,000km.

Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.
 






Is your check engine light on?
 












Check engine light: no

Will try to track down that IAC video.

Thanks for the advice.
