Nah its not that... I was going to remove that today but couldn't get my hand and the snips in the gap to do it.... ! ?? - Martin.Has that belt snapped?
I though it could be the large fan...But it doesn't appear to be catching on anything, anyone have a clue what else could be making this noise ??
Bearing on the viscous fan.....my 32 did that....sounded terrible.
Get that sorted before it damages something.

Not sure as I had mine done with a load of other stuff.
If I get 10 mins tomorrow I'll hunt out the bill.
I think I paid 20-30quid for the fan and then fitting.

The seriously damaged belt that u haven't changed has probably started ripping apart more and it's spinning round hitting things and if u leave it long enough it can get wrapped round lower crank and cause timing belt to snap.

I removed the AC belt today...and after fixing the knocking sound I will remove the rest of the AC install..
But to be clear thats no longer a problem/hazard - Martin.
