Neil thats what exactly i have, thats what i am asking. Does this mean any issues? or is it more of a warning for upcoming problem?

7th gen guys

Thanks Salim. Is this normal for Diesel engine to take a couple of seconds to start up when you turn the key?

Hi wise men, Today I came to know that my 7gen diesel don't have spark plugs which was a surprise ( because I never knew this before) When I turn the key on the lcd screen an amber messages shows "check system" and when car is started it quickly disappears. If there is no spark plugs then what...

Fred are you alright? :o This much research, mate I award you with best research ever done on any car aircon. Amazing!!!

No it's not crank shaft, crank shaft have a very distinct noise ***ociated with vibration when you drive as well. So not the sort of problem so far....

Thanks guys, I check my tensioner back again today after couple of hundred miles driven. Tensioner seems more settled and calm. The notch etched on engine bay is in the centre of the tensioner pit. Which i think means belt is in right tension and things are working fine. Cheers

Thank you very much guys for your response. Really please with your detail response. ;)

Strange... Do you think belt is tight?

Any feedback on video?

Any feedback ?

No its fine Cliff.

Cliff did you notice the vibrating tension in video while belt running?

Cliff the space was so tight that i can't fit 6 side socket in there with racket or extension bar. Correct me if i am wrong. :(

Steve I doubt it. It could be just a system playing up after service. When you do a re fuel the you will able to gauge the mpg. Hope it helps

Lol

Han don't ask Alex... it was a night mare. :( In last 2 belt changes all mechanics used bolt to lose the tensioner which made it a bit rounded. Yesterday it completely got stripped when i was putting new shorter belt on. Disaster! Tried taking the tensioner off today and got it unbolted by a...

I think not having extension bar really damaged the bolt. I don't have 13mm extension that long. Want to take it to mechanic or ask him to visit car in my garage as driving it will damage the belt or snap it. Now have to bear the cost of getting this corrected. :(
