Hey peoples I have been noise hunting again, i still have a clicking noise under the bonnet but i think i might be onto the culprit this time.
I took the accessories belt off and spun all off my pulleys around and found that my powersteering pump made a bit of a clicking noise. So i then went to give it the wobble test (heaps technical make sure your a fully trained mechanic lol) anyways when i grabbed the pulley it pulled forwards and "clack" then i pushed it backwards "clack" like about 1.5mm of play forwards and backwards "clack ---- clack ---- clack ---- clack clack clack clack clack clack clack" :whistling
Is this normal? cause i went and scoped out the 2 other vns we have here and they both had a bit of play in them aswell not as much as mine but i couldnt be bothered putting one of them on my car if a new one has none of this sloppiness.
How much am i looking at for a new one anyways?
Also just double checking, it is cool to run the car without accessories belt for short periods of time (cause u got no water pump goin) right? Cause i didnt try this test yet...
Cheers,
