Listen to what my car has to say!

Post by OdinEidolon »

Hi all, here's a video of a cold start qith my 2.2 HDi.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EN_D3UzTfqE

You can first hear how my injector problem isn't solved yet (even if before fitting doggy's injectors it was much worse). The engine rattles a lot when cold / pushed.
Around 0:28 you can hear a screeching noise. Is this something you can recognize?
After 0:40 you can better hear my crankshaft pulley noise. Am I correct thinking of this? I must be sure before going to the dealer and kick his a**.

Sorry bud, obviously it's not running right but other than that it sounds like mine - a bucket of spanners :roll:

could you clarify this? I don't get it :cry:
You mean the pulley's noise is normal?

My engine is very noisy, especially the injectors. If you reckon your pulley is on the way out then you should be looking for metal particles under it and seeing if the halves are separate by drawing a line across it and seeing of the halves of the pulley are moving differently to each other.

I can hear something but I wouldn't rush into replacing anything if it was me :? as steve said it sounds 'normal'.

You should have heard my bottom pulley when it went :shock: it was the loudest knocking/banging noise ever!
