Its certainly possible. Could get a video up for noises.
Should be fairly obvious where it cones from just poke about
RE: powersteering - Danny2009 - 18-07-2012
Does the noise go away when its warm? could be the aux belt.
RE: powersteering - simonx3 - 18-07-2012
Na stays on all time

spray a load of WD40 on the fan belt, if it stops then its that and it will need replacing lol
RE: powersteering - Niall - 18-07-2012
Or just take some tyre chalk to the inside of the belt when it's running. But for the sake of 9 quid and 30 seconds work, could just replace the belt.
RE: powersteering - simonx3 - 18-07-2012
Tryed wd40 and didn do anything lol
RE: powersteering - Niall - 18-07-2012
Try a new belt and if it's not that, with the car running, put a screw driver to the pump and put the other end to your ear and you will be able to hear it if it is that. Could also be the alternator
RE: powersteering - simonx3 - 18-07-2012
Ok bit strange but ill give it ago lol its starts fine evrytime so wouldn fought alternator
RE: powersteering - Niall - 18-07-2012
Nah it's not strange. It acts the same way as a stethoscope. Great for pin pointing noises. What engine is it btw?
