Noise, just had the coolant replaced ffs, how big a job is it likely to be? Looks easy enough, but not had time to look properly at the feckin' thing!

You not noticed? He's working up to a full blown HSE L322 one car at a time :@)

Ah but is it the belt slipping because some dozy sod spilled antifreeze over the pulley or a waterpump bearing waving goodbye? Derek

You sure its not just the alternator belt slipping?

Fairly straightforward theres a bit of work removing the Rad and cowling ( Unless you want to risk a new Rad ) plus the fan viscous coupling assembly needs to come off and IIRC the power steering idler bracket gets in the way.If it helps I can send some exploded views etc for reference Derek
