Evening all. Been getting an intermittent squealing and other odd noises the past couple of days, so a quick check under the bonnet and I notice the water pump pulley has about 1-2mm of movement in it( under belt tension ). I don't know that this is the source of the noise, but I shall replace the pump with an Airtex one as a matter of course.
Apart from age, are there many other reasons for failure? I've only just had the PAS pump off so I've had all the belts off, they're correctly tensioned and the pulleys seem all in line ( by eye, anyway ). Is this new problem just a coincidence, or should I be looking closer at pulley and belt alignment? Have I answered my own question!?
Cheers in advance!
