    Hi guys, got a problem with metallic clanging from cambelt side. Whole
    cambelt set (together with rolles) has been replaced about 2500 km
    ago, any ideas what it might be?

    Probably the crankshaft pulley

  3. My crankshaft pulley went a few weeks ago. It is rubber bonded and the two
    parts start to separate and make a clattery clangy noise. My mechanic
    found mine when doing the service and MOT so he fixed it then. New one
    from Pug is around £120 but he got it from GSF for £90. Fitting was an hour
    (or thereabouts).

    More than likely the bottom pulley - I'm now om my third - the last
    one was changed last week under warranty as it had been replaced less
    than a year ago

    I wonder how much this cost to be done as I think my noise may be caused
    by the bottom pulley!!!!

  6. The pulley is about £90 from GSF parts (£120 from Pug). I cannot say how
    much to fit because mine was done with other work but I don't think it is
    that major a job. My mechanic reckoned that if you (carefully) peered down
    with a torch when the engine was running you could see bits flying off.
