Hyundai 2002 Santa Fe 2.4 ltr manual
Just had timing belt and shaft balancing belt replaced, but now when I push the clutch in as I change up gears the motor will build revs. When stationary it idles fine. Does not seem to have high revs at crusing speed. I can also feel some vibration in floor and pedals. The mech drove it to verify the symptoms and suggested the computer needs to reset its idle point. Wants me to drive it for a day and take it back so he can check it again. He says he may need to reset the computer himself but is reluctant to do so.
There is also an occaisional loud squeeking noise (like a slipping belt) but they have been checked and do not appear to be loose.
Can anyone offer any suggestions? Would greatly appreciate any assistance. Thanks
Hi this is caused by you timing belt being to tight or off a tooth. The tech is trying to get out of pulling it back apart. Go back there and be stern with them it is there fault. Reseting your computers will do nothing on you car due to it not having computer with adaptive learning system. Tell him that and see what he says. I cant stand techs that lie.

squeeking sound could be water pump or idler bearings,would need to have vehicle in front of me to tell exactly,as for idle problems ?? havent a clue with all this nerdy stuff on cars now,Was battery disconnected before work started on vehicle?? if not then yes it might need a nerdy white coat to reset something but i cant help their as when i studied mechanics cars had side valve engines and carbs and dizzy caps ,with cable brakes.
your balancer belt is not time right. go back to dealer and have it timed
