Hi
I'm new to this so here goes:
I had a severe noise on my TD4 and it turned out to be the rubber part within the crank pully completly fell appart (didn't help that my wife noticed a noise and still decided to drive home with it !!) Anyway ordered a new aftermarket pully and had it fitted. It lasted 500km before starting to split the rubber again (noise returned) I hope it is just a faulty one. The main question I would like to ask is if there should be a woodruff key in this pulley. Mines doesnt seem to have one and Lanndrover parts tell me it just looks as if the timing chain pulley is the only one near the crank pully. - I am just trying to rule out any reason why the new pully failed so quickly - I have a new one on order - but am a bit worried that i am fitting it incorrectly. Any replies would be appriciated.
Thanks
