Pontiac GT? Which model? Supercharged? Could record the noise and upload it into a video hosting site and then paste the link in here? Have you tried removing the engine belt and running the engine long enough to see if the noise is caused by an accessory or pulley? Can you pinpoint the location of the noise using a mechanic stethoscope? What is the ambient temperature where you live? What weight oil are you using? How are all the fluid levels? Are you noticing any loss of fluids? Do you have any drive-ability problems besides the unusual noise? Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.
