I am an Activaist-v6 and a 2.1Estateerr

[CitroJim]

Pop the aux belt off to confirm Alasdair.

I can take a listen next Saturday...

And if the belt needs doing we can work something out

[Mandrake]

By left side I assume you really mean the right side, eg belt side ? Can you record the sound with your phone ?

Does it stop if you turn the aircon on or off ?

[Stickyfinger]

Yes...belt side.

Tried....sound is masked on phone by the normal engine sounds....it is defo a howl and not a "scream"/running squeek, and higher up ....a little like induction howl but obviously not as it changes intensity/a higher note and goes at 2k.

[Stickyfinger]

Anyone go a link to a good deal on Belts, tensioners and water pump for the V6 ?

[CitroJim]

No, but I'm good at doing them. Try Mike (xantia_v6) as he got a kit very recently...

[Stickyfinger]

Will do...if he does not see this


LOL....I bet you are

[Stickyfinger]

I love this car......No...ZERO..ZipALL..BuggerAll mystery noise this morning......it has even been checked by a certain expert who just said, "what noise, that sounds sweet Alasdair" ?

The only thing I can think is that with it drained down for a few days awaiting a new header tank that it was maybe something to do with that ....bloody PSA Engines ?

[CitroJim]

You don't want experts looking at your car Alasdair

You know the definition of an expert? An x is an unknown quantity and a spurt is a drip under pressure...

However, I must say it does sound very sweet indeed

[Stickyfinger]

LOL......I put it down to being French......nowt else to say

Enjoyed the visit Jim, thanks for dropping off "Le Tool de Bash La Vert Bollock"

Enjoy the read.....and see you next week.

Faulty eardrum I say, give it a wax.

[Stickyfinger]

Dentish/tooth pain syndrome....but that can't be correct, I just cannot see Jim as a dentist....more a Dental Nurse (but that's on another forum)

[CitroJim]

Great name for it

I am enjoying the read immensely thanks, really very heavily appreciated

[Stickyfinger]

When you start reading Jim you notice it is not all nice images ....lots of text in there

Off to the Bristol Classic Car Show (@ the Shepton) South West Show Ground today...

[CitroJim]

Do enjoy Alasdair.. Wish now I was switched-on enough a while back to have altered my normal weekend plans so I could have joined you at Shepton...

We'll try to do it right next year...

I'm game on for the Haynes Breakfast club meet in a couple of weeks, already planned into my schedule...

[Stickyfinger]

Okkk on the Haynes meeting Jim......
