Hi All,
Washed the car today and when I started her up there was a bit of a squealing noise from the fan area. Had a good feel around (as you do ) and didn't feel any obvious slack/ floating. However, after the car had fully dried off the noise was gone. I'm thinking it might be the alternator fan hub bearing :?: I've had a look on the old web and the going price for this piece of simple engineering is £100 plus VAT plus shipping WTF So my question is, do you concur on the noise issue and second can I just buy the bearing and replace it thus saving myself silly money. ( I'm not trying to be cheap but don't see the £100 plus.
All feed back greatly appreciated :thumb:
