rsweeney 40 Posted November 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 adjusted slightly and bit better, will any new belt take a few miles to adjust itself? Link to post Share on other sites

Daverse 175 Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 sounds like its not seated on the crank pulley properly, try undoing it and make sure the ribs are in the grooves ok Link to post Share on other sites
Antihero1981 8 Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 yeah agree check its sitting flush on all pullys..i did this one mine and it was a rib to far over Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 all this talk of ribs is making me hungry.... but yep, deffo shouldnt be rubbing. its quite easy to miss a rib, double check from under side of the car... Link to post Share on other sites
rsweeney 40 Posted November 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 ha sorted it , belt was too tight . loosened it off a tiny bit and no more noise - still charges well so not slipping Link to post Share on other sites
