Hi
just had my own cdti 2004 in with my local mechanic - who also owns a honda and i have the same clacking noise coming from the fanbelt / pulleys area , I originally thought it was the tensioner pulley as I had changed the fanbelt myself bout 6 months ago , all pulley wheels seemed to be running freely but the tensioner pulley did seem a bit stiff - not sure if thats the way it should feel as its an automatic tensioner ?? - anyway my local mechanic stripped down engine around pulleys today and he reckons that the tensioner is fine but problem I have with this clacking noise is actually the crankshaft pulley - he said its the actual rubber part in the pulley that goes in them - has anyone else have the same issue as this ?? ??
