But I should say, its been warning me summat is gonna go ping unless I get it fixed for the last 8 months ::)
In fact TB, at Newent last year, hit the nail on the head, I thought it was something else wrong with it.
Today, screeching noise from engine compartment, immediately followed by only engine noise and battery warning light on.
For the last 8 months the aux belt has been 'bouncing' when idling, not when rev'd.
So....from that, the aux belt must be loose when idling, which suggests a knackered bearing on summat attached to the aux belt....
Competition time.....which bearing failed.... poll added :y
