smudge2002 Posted March 5, 2009 Report Posted March 5, 2009 Hi,This happened on mine last year (52 reg 1.9 tdi) and it was the alternator pulley had sheared off the alternator. Sounds like it could be the same fault. Cheers, Smudge. Quote
big_kev Posted March 5, 2009 Report Posted March 5, 2009 Yep sounds like the belts gone, could be alternator, power steering, Air-con or either of the pulleys failed.Could be the belt itself failed. Should be obvious which one......take the cover off and have a look. Quote
shanec Posted October 15, 2009 Report Posted October 15, 2009 exact same thing happened me yesterday, the car had been making a funny noise for a couple of days then the pulley came of the alternator. Luckily enough i got another alternator at handy money and replaced the old one and belt. running sweet now. Quote
