So... You're crank pulley is knackered? Not sure if there's a question in that post or not, had you considered using sentences to communicate?

Errr...Im with you on this

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.

Flapping about! Theres summit up there, shouldn't be flapping about...sounds like your CS pulley is wank/fubar'd

plus, turning your cooling fans on on a cold morning to raise the revs seems a bit counter-productive if the fans cool your system...its like 1-step forward, 2-steps back. I imagine its going to take ages to warm up

def sounds like your CS pulley is going if the noise subsides after rev increase/warms up...could be the engine sound covering it though take the aux belt off and start the car without it, if noise goes...its that or the tensioners lol 20mins work...

Does the belt visibly "flap" around?

Srowell: Im working on building a guide, some things came up yesterday...and today lol but I'm on it
