Chaps
Car is an Audi A3 8P 2.0 tdi 140
Since yesterday I have noticed my engine squeaking loudly at times.
It sounds like a fan belt slipping? But I assume we dont have fan belts anymore?
As you look into the engine bay at the front left, there is a belt that goes round the starter motor / some adjuster 'thingy' and I believe this is the culprit?
On tick over the squeak comes and goes. If you give it a little rev the noise goes away. At the same time the adjuster 'thingy' seems to move and the belt does slip anymore.. (Tightens the belt perhaps?)
What you reckon?
Cheers
