Tommyd16 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Have abit of noise from my belts or pulleys? Maybe bearings? Noise speeds up as I go faster. Sorry I can't give anymore info on it but has anyone else had a similar experience or an easy fix before I take it garage? Cheers Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 You need to be more specific Im afraid, what sort of noise, what part of the belt run, left or right etc. There a few rotating things that can make a noise... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooter Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Open the bonnet and spin the engine fan, does it move freely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Budz86 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 You could also take the aux belt off and spin each pulley by hand and have a listen, with a squirt of WD40 on any noisey or sticky ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian C Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 My money is on the PAS pump bearings, it seems to be the main one to go and make a whiney noise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyd16 Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 Had a poke around does seem to come from power steering pump. Anyway to fix it? Or a new pump is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Chris Wilson can refurbish them for significantly less than a new one costs. Run your finger around the back of the pulley, see if you get some fine metallic dust on your fingertip. I had that when mine went, it was the bearing slowly grinding itself to dust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyd16 Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 Sounds just like a bearing wearing out. I will give him a shout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommyd16 Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 Oops already pm'd. Phone him tomorow. What sort of price does he charge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Reasonable. When it comes to CW, if he quotes a price, that's what it'll reasonably cost while making anough £££s to feed his emus. You might be able to get a cheaper quote, but you won't get as good a job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus GTE Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Did you get this sorted? I had the same thing and fitting a new belt last week completely cured it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyd16 Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 Got a new belt to fit but had the belt off the other day and its bearings in the idler pulley making the noise so need to replace that aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus GTE Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Got a new belt to fit but had the belt off the other day and its bearings in the idler pulley making the noise so need to replace that aswell I guess if one thing is going to go you probably want it to be that eh? Cheaper than a Power steering pump ect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
