dunk1 Posted May 27, 2015 Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 (edited) The parts that have just been replaced are the first things i'd be looking at if the noise has started since they were fitted. Take the aux belt off and run the engine for a short time to rule out the pulleys etc Edited May 27, 2015 by dunk1 benny2097, lynch86, autosri and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
