serious?
if it needs to be changed how many spanners is it... haynes says 2 :undecided:
-
Try adjusting 1st.

There is also a splash gaurd for these, that could be useful. I have one, and not replaced the belt in 2 years, or know when it was last done, and get no issues in the wet.
-
oop... and now some horrid noises on full lock both ways... wtf? :huh:
-
Screeching noises from the belt?
They do say that you shouldnt have your steering on full lock for more than something stupid like 10seconds or it can damage the pump "apparently"!!! Crazy.

got the exact same thing this morning, is very hairy going round a roud-a-bout :evil:

Just put a new belt on there only about £3 from GSF.
Only need to loosen 3 bolts, slide old belt off put new one on and tension and tighten up bolts. Half hour max including jacking your car up and washing your hands.

I've got my home made wooden ramps in the back (made from my Mums old bannisters, shes still wondering where they are) to drive on before I can fit the jack under.
Could do with 4x4 status for the bumps over the Avonmouth bridge though.
