Belt tensioner bearings

<< < (2/2)

Trax99:
many thanks to the fine body of men that replied - but it defo lols like it's the alternator thats giving up :angry:, so it's time to spend some ( more??) money on the old girl

muddyjames:
a good tip to find which bearing is on the way out is to get a long screw driver, put the end on the bolt that holds the bearings on and put your ear to the screw driver head. if there is a noise that bearing has gone, no noise and it is fine. It is a bit like a glass to a wall to spy on next door!!! :lol: Works really well and I'm not joking. just dont slip and get your ear chopped off in the engine! ;)

NIVAD:
I changed mine and my alternator and the noise was till there.

The belt was dirty along with the pulleys, you have too gently wire brush until all build up has gone-fine now
