Phil Taylor Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 mines making a weird noise too. I have just booked it into the garage and he said its the alternator pulley. Does this come of or will i have to replace the alternator? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ToyotaTech15 Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Pulley comes off, but itl more likely be bearings than the pulley,If it's the bearings itl need a alternatorGary Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rob_bower Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Pulley comes off, but itl more likely be bearings than the pulley,If it's the bearings itl need a alternatorGaryIf its the bearings they can be replaced for about £40 as long as they dont crack the casing when splitting it other wise you do need a new one!!

Russleh Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 as micky said just because it stopped doesnt mean its fixed lol soo many things to that on cars. most annoyingly when you take it to a garage and then get told theres nothing wrong lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
