Screeching noise

[04WildStang]

I have a 2004 3.9 V6 mustang. It had a sqeaking sound. I took it to the shop several times and replaced the belt, tensioner arm, water pump, ac compressor and alternator. The steady squeak is gone, but now it has a loud screeching sound that comes every 5-10 minutes. There is also a Service Engine light on that says something is wrong with the crank sensor. My mechanic says the crank sensor is fine. Any ideas what it could be?

Always post the full DTC code. There are 1000's and they each have a story to tell. Almost all auto parts stores will down load for free. So there's no excuse not to post the full DTC codes.

I doubt the DTC says there's a problem with the crank sensor (CKP). Why? Because the motor would not run at all.

If looking for a WAG about what might be wrong, then a bad camshaft synchronizer sensor (CMP) bearing. It is a common problem with the V6.
