Paul372 Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 the past month my supe been nothing but trouble its had a new rad from mr t's, then the aircon pump seized and fanbelt broken so il had that fix and a new bat, i got it back saturday and tuesday the bloody fan belt shredded to bits what would cause this a crap belt maybe it completely shredded into pieces and wrapped its self around the fan ( loads of long thin separate pieces) ve been out and looked at my supe and all the pulleys looks ok, aircon pump spins freely, power steering pump spins freely, tensionor spins and the alternator spins freely, all the pulleys look aligned in the same plane and ok, the groves look ok too but in some of the groves i think it looks like little bits of the old belt should i clean the groves out on the pulleys, the groves dont look damaged, do you think it was just a crap fanbelt am going to get a proper original fanbelt from toyota maybe the belt was put on wrong could that do it has anyone had this problem got any ideas?

michel lane Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 buy yourself a kevlar fan belt , will never break ..... dont start thinking about the worse case , start at the basics ..fan belt change first , if its a UK car then it the dampener thats the problem ...it no longer works that well , therefore making the belt jump on high revs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
