Hi,
Started the van up for work this morning and had a loud noise at idle. On reving noise disappeared but re emerged once the revs slowed to around 900rpm and the noise started again. Looked under bonnet and on the passenger side of the engine there is a belt cover view from the front of the van. I can see a bearing with no belt around it and the belt under the cover is slack as f--k
Drove 4 miles to work like this is it safe too drive home? Or do I get the RAC out. Tthe bearing without belt around it is near the top of the engine passenger side visible without removingt he belt cover.Any idea what it drives????
After two other faults with starting/ glow plugs circuits after 18th months I am starting to find this T4 ownership a real pain at present :*
