Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    I have been getting a noise from the fan belt area? when I start the car from cold.

    It's a 2002 car and I am going to be trading it in shortly.

    It has 150,000 km on the clock.

    It gets even worse when I turn the steering wheel.

    Have checked the power steering fluid today , its level is fine.

    The noise for a few minutes but then stops when the engine warms up.

    Car is not due a service for another 3,500km?

    I dont want to go to any large expense but dont need car to give up the ghost.

    Any mechanics on here?

    Most likly explanitation is that the power steering pump belt is not tensioned right.

    Its an easy enough fix.......
