Default 2007 Caliber timing belt

I think I hear a loose timing belt in my 2.0 caliber. When the engine is on idle, I can hear a tacking noise coming from the side, but when I raise the RPM, the tacking noise turns into a zooming noise.

Has anyone had this and was it the timing belt??

You think you can take a video clip for the noise?

It has a chain, not a belt. I think you might be hearing the alternator clutch pulley.
