Got a bit of a noise from the engine bay

Ideas? pas pump? Sounds like a metallic grinding noise, comes from the drivers side around the front of the engine

Thanks

Why ask Brett? I bought it off IVIark

Did the 1.6 have a problem with tensioners? I sprayed a load of wd on everything, didn't help really,

I don't think it's water pump as the temp stay good, I'll have to get the ex vaux apprentice of the year thats here to have a gander for me

Mine did that, thought it was Alternator but that was fine. Assumed it could only be the air con pump after as I had my belt, tensioners and water pump done before.

Mine does this and the aircon doesnt work, never thought of putting 2 and 2 together though

Always thought it was the alternator.

My 1.6 made that exact noise. It turned out to be a blow at the cat/mid pipe join

That's interesting Shaun! Was going to take the exhaust off anyway

Although it does seem to come from the engine bay, around the drivers wing/ belt area
