Any Ideas on what is wrong?

Good morning lovely club members, thank you for your help last time!

I have a new issue now, its on my YouTube account.

Basically my 90 HDI is making a nasty clicking noise at idle and 2.000 rpm.

I assume its the crankshaft pulley as similar Youtubers have the similar noise?

Any help would be generous :)

Sounds like the crank pulley, you can usually see debris around pulley or undertray

I think the usual test was to craw a line in Tippex or whatever across the pulley, run the engine, and if the line is no longer straight then the two halves of the pulley have separated (and your engine is living on borrowed time :shock: )

So my guess was right with the YouTubers then.
Thanks for the advise!

Hopefully my car won't be dead soon as I'm due to get her fixed the weekend.

P.s I'm going to be driving alot slower home now :(
