Humm i have just had my cam belt changed and im getting a bit of a noise when Accelerating.... [ERRR] ideals,,, im probly just worried over nuffink...

[MikeyXR2i]

possibly timing rollers, where you have had the belt changed, new tension on used rollers, can make them whistle or make a wining sound.

make no difference though? im geting adjustable ones soon [ERRR] way?

[MikeyXR2i]

won't harm it in anyway, just an annoying noise. It will go eventually when the roller wears to the tension applied.

thats ok then was gonna say its doing it so much now... the rate that it spinns round it wont take long

[MikeyXR2i]

yep true m8

Did ya just get the belt changed or did ya get a cam belt kit ?

[Fiestasi-Andy]

your best getting the kit, i had mine changed over the weekend good job i did the main bearing thing had a crack in it.

Don't complain! Just pretend you've got an interesting sounding turbo!

Think the tensioners have been known to shatter on the early Zetec engines. Keep an eye on it in any case

My mechanical minded friend sitting next to me ( ford mechanic) said the whistling sounds could be, a) leaking inlet manifold gasket, b) leaking exhaust manifold gasket or downpipe-to-manifold joint, c) leaking vacuum hose, or d) blowing cylinder head gasket.

i had a whistling noise after my new cambelt was fitted. You could hear it most when accelerating in 1st and 2nd. Problem: Cambelt was too tight.
