    Hi Willem, my belt starts making a noise only when I turn sharply in either direction. When the wheels are straight there's no noise. Could it be a tensioner issue or maybe the belt being stretched?

    Hi Willem. I have just bought a 2016 amarok. It has the updated cover around the serpentine belt. There is a whining sound and an unpleasant harshness which changes with rpm and increases with power-steering load. It also increases as the alternator switches o n and ramps up after starting the engine. I suspect a worn out serpentine belt causing vibration and micro-slippages on the pulleys. I can feel the micro-slippages through the power-steering feedback on idle. I have had similar micro slippages and whining happen on a BMW i had long ago which was solved with a new serpentine belt. In your opinion would this be related to the belt only or a combination of the belt and tensioner?

    • @willemtreurnicht3818
      @willemtreurnicht3818 16 днів тому

      Hi Have a look at the clutch pulley on the alternator. It's a one way clutch which can cease up and cause vibrations on the serpentine belt... That in time will eat up you tensioner, and if you're unlucky it will have you stand on the side of the road, and if your very unlucky the pieces of the serpentine belt will get into the cambelt and cause that to slip, which can in turn bend valves etc... So check out the alternator pulley as well as the tensioner on the serpentine belt, if neccesary replace both, plus the idler and the belt... If that does not solve the problem you at least know that those items are sorted, then look further to the AC compressor and power steering pump... Hope it helps.

      @@willemtreurnicht3818 Thank you!! My amarok has the seperate covers over the timing belt and serpentine belt. I have just replaced the timing belt, timing belt tensioner and idler. Serpentine belt and serpentine belt tensioner/pulley assembly. While the belts were off I personally inspected the alternator pulley clutch, power steering pump pulley bearing, and AC compressor pulley bearing. All perfect. I also flushed and replaced the power-steering fluid. After all of those, still the whining noise with rpm and steering load. I guess the power steering pump itself must be worn out then.

    • @THEmomentumJUNK1E
      @THEmomentumJUNK1E 8 днів тому

      Hydraulic power-steering sucks. I have had a bunch of cars/suvs with electric power steering before and it's FAR superior. It has greater actuation force than Hydraulic, and can be turned on when being towed even if the engine can't start. Amarok was far behind on this especially by the 2016-2019 period.

    • @willemtreurnicht3818
      @willemtreurnicht3818 16 днів тому

      It's simply a step to make sure that you have got the timing on the metal ring exactly right. If you use the timing tool for the rear main oil seal it will also require you to lock the engine in TDC. That is your default position for anything to be lined up that's got a position reference on the crank or camshaft.

  • @laserall
    @laserall Місяць тому

    50,000 km is ridiculous.. Mine went at 185,000 but it also damaged the idler. I tell you what, removing the front cover is an absolute pain the ass. Took me hours, I had to cut a screwdriver, grind it back to thicken the flat edge, and clamp it with vice grips. So far I haven't had to remove any coolant hoses. Waiting for new pulleys. I though it was my alternator pulley that was noisy, so I bought an alternator. Mind you the alternator pulley does have a wee bit of a tiny squeak to it, but flows freely and clutch works really well. So I will change it, just in case.

      @willemtreurnicht3818 16 днів тому

      Well they didn't really, that's why there's different torque specs for the bolt for when you re-use it... But I get your point, it's unfortunately just one of those bolts.

      It can be the syncro rings in the gearbox itself, but then again your clutch might not fully disengage. That again could come back to a master but most likely a slave cylinder issue on the clutch.
