Air compressor clutch bearing is failing - repair if too costly a rebuilt unit installed by yourself plus Pro - one in a can recharge of freon will be needed. If above not do able - remove main serpetine drive belt + measure and by trial and error acquire Shorter Belt to Fit everything without going around Air Conditioner pulley . Noise will be gone but no Air Cond. and this is cheapest route but getting right shorter belt Length is Time consuming .

SOURCE: 1998 olds cutlass makes a rubbing noise when

Sounds like the plastic inner fender is loose, or hanging and the wheel is touching it while driving. While the car is parked, try turning the wheel all the way to the left, then look under the left fender, behind the wheel to see if there is anything hanging or in the way. If not then turn the wheel all the way to the right, and check under the right fender and wheel.

if it was empty, you must have a leak in the steering system.

My car keep on breaks alternator belts and it also makes this loud whistling noise. I've put on a new water pump, 3 alternators and several alternator belts

make sure that the pulleys of all the driven equipment are in alignment and not at a bit of an angle to the axis of the drive belt
To break belts something is not lined up properly or something is not turning freely

If idle pulley was replaced and still noise what is it

Well a place to start is pull off the belt and spin the Idler, Tensioner, AC, Alternator, and Power steering, Smog pump (if equipped) pulleys all should spin easy with no noise. Does the sound go away or change when turning on the AC? Also start the car with the belt off to make sure the noise is not coming from the motor. If noise go's away then it has to be one of the items I mentioned above. Cost will be depending on location and type of part gone bad.

Just had left/right struts replaced and now I hear this loud knocking noise (like something jumping around in the trunk) when I go over bumps or make a turn. What causes this?

Possible bushings (sway bar and suspension) if struts check out. Alot of times when you replace struts it amplifies existing worn bushings. Have struts rechecked and have bushings inspected.

The pipe is making loud shaking noise

which pipe, i assume you are referring to an exhaust pipe, do u have a loud (more than usual) exhaust sound, if so, the exhaust pipe is cracked or split, if not, then the exhaust hangers (mahe of heavy duty rubber) are split/broken, causing it to shake OR is the engine shaking as well, or just the exhaust, too many questions, need to specify

How to change the brakes of a 98 cutlass

Some noise is normal for all disc brake system, they have wear indicators that touch the rotor and make a very loud and annoying noise, if this is your case then you need new pads, remember to have the rotor checked for thickness and abnormal wear, all of that can cause brake abnormal noise, if you do replace the pads use quality parts from Know suppliers such as WAGNER and BENDIX, use there new quiet line of brake pads, they produce far less squeak than cheap no name pads that many chain parts stores sell, remember that safety is an issue when changing brake pads, use jack stands and block the wheels.
