Re: Aircon leak 9n
Went to the aircon guy and commented, they knew their stuff and put dye in the system and re gassed and all has been working for the last 3 months and now stopped again. On this basis, I presume I can eliminate the compressor pump as this would not have got it all up and working last time. Likewise ...

Aircon leak
Lost air con and took it to Formula 1 auto and they put an 8 bar test on it for 40mins and it dropped to 7 bar pressure. They couldn't find the leak using some kind of torch or dye? Any suggestions as to where to look with most common points / areas? Weather now warmer so a hot cockpit when driving ...

Re: Engine noise suggestions?
Thanks Rum
I’d be better off buying a secondhand pump and fitting it I think

Re: Engine noise suggestions?
Thanks Alexand Rum
I was wondering if a non air con drivebelt could be fitted so that I could cut out the air con to prove the issue?

Re: Engine noise suggestions?
Had the noise for well over a year now and car used daily. As said, with belt off, nothing at all, silent and smooth. Can only mean something driven off a pulley. Stethoscope only picks up noise on the pump, nothing else but as you say weird as to why putting a strain on the steering you hear it cle...

Re: Engine noise suggestions?
Thanks When I ran the engine without the belt on, no noise at all so has to be something turning. I grabbed the pump pulley and couldn’t get any movement by hand. Put stethoscope on pump and could hear intermittent rattle on case but not on Alternator, exhaust or engine sump. Still can’t work out wh...

Re: Engine noise suggestions?
The noise is coming from just below the alternator and o have aircon. The steering pump is under the green top up lid isn’t it? If so that maybe too far to the right
Are all the aircon pumps the same?
Cheers
