That's interesting, cos these cars are controlled by the bloody computer, and the software will make the car do as the software dictates, software dependent, as well as inputs etc......dam computers!?
So, disconnect the a/c pump, and use the a/c button to "idle up" when the engine is cold, as that's when the aux drive belt is loudest and flapping about.....it even skipped outwards one "valley" on the crank pulley ( pulley must have a problem, maybe outer disc has extra offset via "bursting rubber bonding dv damper" ) , so stopped squeeking ( belt just about touching auto tension allen bolt, and squeeks! until the eng warms up that is ) ......?!
Will try and see if idle up when cold helps aux belt flapping on lowest run from a/c pump to crank pulley.......about 1k revs and noise goes
Still not able to change crank pulley and remove a/con......time will come. not touching cam cover so ok ish for now.....please god etc.
