Re: New water pump Posted by SWEDECAR [Email] (#112) [Profile/Gallery] (more from SWEDECAR) on Mon, 28 Nov 2011 17:41:15 In Reply to: Re: New water pump, BenR, Mon, 28 Nov 2011 15:55:01 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
If it is in fact the balance chain being over tightened, I would not want to drive the car until the noise goes away because that means the chain has worn deeper grooves into the guides prematurely.
So have them listen to it and see what they say. It's not fun having to release the tensioner after wards but should be done.
It doesn't take much for this to happen all depending on what tool and procedure they used.
I had to modify the special tool from Saab to make it safer to do the water pump without having to risk the tensioner to jump one tooth.
