The comments section is an absolute *goldmine* of information. You learn something new everyday. Well done to everyone that contributed with the solution. 👍

@sebastianguerre6868 2 года назад

To be honest I haven't got as much experience as these guys but that sound didn't ever sound like a crankshaft noise to me, big end noise sounds deep and satisfying, the noise sounded like a much higher frequency however the sound recorded by a video camera and often the paint colour recorded by a video camera is often totally different to the actual perception of the individual viewing a live situation. There could be a lessen there. Record the sound of an engine aka the sound filtered out by an electronic device there might be clues there.

@charlieboyok 2 года назад

Wow , just goes to show , it's not what you think..... & that kinda " pisses me off " because alot of older people drive small cars & get charged a few grand for something that is not , thanks to the viewers people now could think differently as in more options I feel sorry for the victims out there. Guys bloody great video another Win for the people. 😂

@Mind-your-own-beeswax 2 года назад

What a cracking result lads. 10 out of 10 for the folk who knew what the fault was 👏👏👏👏

@a100267 2 года назад

When Chris pulled that cord I expected to hear "Action Man patrol forward!"

@brettellgood2845 2 года назад

The noise is caused by sections of the auxiliary belt missing causing the actuator wheel to jump about. If you had run it up with the wheel arch liner out the way you would of seen it. Do at least 1 of these a week at the moment it seems.

@philtucker1224 2 года назад

Great outcome lads! The shocking truth is though, that some poor trusting Peugeot customers are shelling out £4000 to have a new engine fitted!

@andrewmoorey6103 2 года назад

I've been in the trade for 30 odd years and seen some crazy ideas but this ranks as one of the most over complicated solutions for a problem that doesnt exist I've ever come across. Nuts.

@paulsz6194 2 года назад

@duttontube 2 года назад

Amazing diagnosis. Imagine being told you need a new engine and potentially scrapping the car for such a small fix! Power to all of the subscribers!

@jon623197 2 года назад

You're spot on when you said you can't know everything, the most worrying thing is that another garage said it needed a new engine. How can this happen so often? How many very good cars a scrapped through misdiagnosis? That Aldi TT, sorry I mean Peugeot is a good reason to find a good local automotive engineer, not a big garage with lots of fitters and give them all your business. Thanks as always, Jon.

@stephenricketts7764 2 года назад

I have said it many times on here, I am 'old school' but I was in the 'big end' camp. I think you were right Rob, it was just a mistake. At least the little man can have a rest now! I bet he went home and watched the Jubilee! Thanks Rob and Chris for an interesting video once again. Thanks to all the subscribers who made the right call, well done all.

@keegan773 2 года назад

Don’t you love it when a plan comes together. Well done lads and we’ll done those who offered advice.

@RQCK0N 2 года назад

How many people have been hit with massive engine replacement bills when they only needed £150 + labour. Crazy design. Great result for you guys and you took a risk. The new music is so much better, thanks. Love the channel lads 👍

@mikeclifton7778 2 года назад

As someone else said and I agree, the enormous chunk missing from the former drive belt would've made a heck of a din as it passed the tensioner. A nice lucky break and the comments section is proven correct! Excellent video there Rob.

@calm4477 2 года назад

Agreed, I think it was making the tensioner jump each time it passed through it, hence the noise.

@LeeRestoration1275 2 года назад

old owner must be gutted watching this - well done chaps

@jaygsi 2 года назад

Rob said, He’s ok he was offered the car before the video went out

@ianpovey7939 2 года назад

I think Chris deserved an easy-fix to get over Rob turning up with that Landrover! Well done guys. I was also chuffed to find out earlier that I was a winner in the last Comline competition, that I found out about from watching the channel. Thanks again!

@sbrad1961 2 года назад

What a result so much for the original diagnosis🤔🙄 and what makes this channel great 👍 is you take advice from viewers 😀 and check it out what is said 👍👍👍

@PaulX 2 года назад

I love it when the comments come together to help with fixing the cars. Restores a bit of faith in humanity, proper channel

@barryrathbone 2 года назад

Love how rob gets the hard job of going for the coffee!

@paulbeecham8313 2 года назад

Nice win lads, had exactly same noise on a mini it was the belt itself had bits missing on the ribs causing the pump driver to clatter like big ends, new belt fitted job done 👌

@garethprytherch9623 2 года назад

Fair play to those that put you onto the fix. And good on you both for listening 👍👊

@tomtodhunter1776 2 года назад

Glad the commemts section were able to help you get it sorted. Another example of manufacturers over complecating things. There'll be someone out there with a kit to transform it to a more conventional set up. If not, Chris could design one. Top work. 👍

@toolrestoration 2 года назад

And ahhhhhhhh relax !! Rebuilds time . Best bit of the start of the week. Who d have thought a wibbley wobbly would create that noise !!

@robertbishop9283 2 года назад

Theres a plethora of knowledge in community guys. Absolutely brilliant 👏👏👏👏

@kentmckean6795 2 года назад

That belt had a chunk out of it. Every time it would go past the "Tension-er/Enabler Thing-a-ma-ginger" it would bounce the wheel against the waterpump wheel and make the noise! I would bet that all that car really needed was a new serpentine belt!

@fireflyrobert 2 года назад

Just watching this has given me deep joy - well done!

@johnmehaffey9953 2 года назад

Wow Chris finding out something new about auto’s, there’s hope for little old me yet, my sons 1.2 Clio was putting oil out as quickly as I was putting it in, cracked sump I thought took it to the mechanic who looks after me and it was the oil pump housing, so looks like I’ll stick to doing my crossword at least I can do that, super post guys and well done the guys who put you in the right direction

@ferglesnerk 2 года назад

Yep! Very RC on that one guys. And Rob, no need for Chris to stand close to the mic. Even when he's the other side of the car his voice comes through loud and clear. Good job. 👍👍

@robloxfan4271 2 года назад

This car is a gem, feel bad for the old owner

@ianfender8142 2 года назад

Your grin at the end of the video says it all , a team effort

@steverandall5814 2 года назад

All that so the engine can warm up 2 minutes faster? The only thing that makes any sense to me is that Peugeot needed the engine up to operating temperature and on closed-loop control as fast as possible to comply with emissions regulations.

@chriswilkes4350 2 года назад

Very nice, Rob and Chris. A nice way to start the day with you two guys. It's encouraged me to go out and fix my bonnet catch!

@danijelcar5184 2 года назад

You should pay attention when buying spare parts for this engine, especially the problem is the belt, which is much thinner on aftermket spare parts and can create a problem, there is not enough friction between the tensioner and the pulley on the water pump, so bether solution is to buy original belt it will last longer. Btw nice car😎 Greetings From Croatia!

@michaelhorner2722 2 года назад

What a result ! Brilliant diagnosis from those in the comments section and as usual well done Rob & Chris.

@tonymcnamara9368 2 года назад

It doesn't say much for the technicians that said the engines gone, does it? They certainly didn't do any checks.

@bloodybrit 2 года назад

This is what makes your channel so good. I learned something, I chuckled at your humour, you got a result and someone will end up with a bargain.

@paultaylor9652 2 года назад

You did it again guys, fantastic result. Not sure now but there use to be quite a following for these Peugeot's

@trevorjarvis3021 2 года назад

Brilliant video Rob and Chris, what a result - wow!! And what I liked was that you did the repairs outside on the ground just like the majority us would. Superb content, total credit to you! ✊👍👏🚙

@solarflare2199 Год назад

Rcz-R owner here. 90k km's , car's still running like a beast. ECU remap on 100 octane fuel + panel filter , rock solid to 300 h. What a car man i LOVE it :)

@grahamevans9606 Год назад

Me and my girlfriend have just aquired one of these from her Dad!!! He had not driven it for 3 1/2 years and he is moving to a warden controlled flat. I have been in the process of recommissioning it....new tires all round, getting rid of fault codes, broken Coil spring etc.... New MOT now and only 45k on the clock we aim to keep it as a second car. Its a boneshaker but does have personality that is so lacking in modern cars.

@viviennepatterson5950 2 года назад

@garysimpson3900 2 года назад

Great "Win" for you chaps & well done to those subscribers knowledgeable about these engines for spotting the issue. How many RCZ & Mini owners have been ripped off by garages into going down the "replacement engine" route when the true cost is £180!!!!

@Suzukits 2 года назад

No wonder there isn’t many about !!! I bet a few have gone over the bridge thinking the bottom end had gone 🤦‍♂️

@philbreakspear1027 2 года назад

Well I done my apprenticeship in the 60s, I’m now in my 70s so I guess you can say I’m old school,but I’ve never heard a noise that accurately mimics a big end like that, it’s very true what they say, you never stop learning….well played again lads…😀

@adeh503 2 года назад

Totally over engineered set up that water pump talk about trying to reinvent the wheel... Well done fellas great result 👍👍

@jimschafer9196 2 года назад

Sweet ... great flip, nice having others out in the cyber world that off there technical skill to the resolution to these kind of problem. NOW why would an engineer design something so flaky ... but it did run 70K until if failed (I wonder if the manual called out that drive belt to be replaced at 60K miles) LOL. Great job guys and great content too. I also liked the music.

@s2hjt 2 года назад

You Lucky sods. Gives you a warm feeling when something like that happens.

@graham6771 2 года назад

What a result:) You never stop learning. Interesting.

@marksutherland774 2 года назад

Reminds me on when the alternator went on my 1.9cdti. Sounded like the engine was away to pack in lol because it uses a clutch assembly to engage. Nice win for you guys. It also shows how reading the comments on videos can give some gold, that many will overlook. So credit to those posting comments because it helps everyone.

@SirGregory 2 года назад

I can't help but think of the previous owner. Big ends gone at 73K? Unlikely if it's been cared for. They've lost $Ks due to misdiagnosis. I feel for them.

@mrbakerr1 2 года назад

I agree, as in I feel sorry for the previous owner, but to be fair a lot of modern Peugeot engines crap themselves prematurely, so is not unheard of.

@bedclintred 2 года назад

You have both learnt something new, was worth watching just for the look on Chris's face. I don't believe it! your not turning into Victor Meldrew are you Rob? Chuffed for you both that it was such an easy fix, well done. 😁👍

@robertbowes1001 2 года назад

I have seen this issue 100s of times with bad belts. Basically that actuator comes in when the engine gets hot to then start circulating the coolant and as it’s squashing the belt on the pulleys that big gap in the belt is what’s making the noise as it’s thumping past the actuator is probably good just change the belt and the pump if it’s ok.

@studley73 2 года назад

Everyday is a school day, credit where its due rob and chris just shows that you read the comments, bestchannel on youtube with 2 down to earth fella's

@philbo200lambretta3 2 года назад

Can't help but wonder if that "garage" was looking at making a pretty penny on that "new engine".

@robturner7945 2 года назад

I’ll be jiggered! That’s a new one to me too. Well done to all the subscribers. Superb result 👍🏻

@jamespowne9953 2 года назад

Well done guys, can't help but feel sorry for the previous owner, probably cost him a lot of money after a misdiagnosis

@sruk 2 года назад

We offered it to him he’s ok 👍

Just shows how genuine you pair are, proper Gents of the highest regard 👌

@Alexander_l322 2 года назад

A bucket of muck and roses come to mind. Nice one fellas I think we all in the comments had an idea that it wasn’t as bad as the original diagnosis lead you too believe.

I wish I would still live in the UK, I always liked that car. Great job from the other subscribers!!! It is so great to see that there are still people who know what they are doing and care !!!

@philtucker1224 2 года назад

That’s a really lovely looking car Rob, I’m sure they’ll be a nice little que of hopeful customers wanting to buy that one! 😊

@notwhereyouthink 2 года назад

That was definitely one of the best social media fixes I've seen so far.

@vinniewalton4642 2 года назад

Could the knocking possibly have been the flat spot on the belt as it went between the pullys

@Ragnar8504 2 года назад

Sounds quite likely!

@charliepower9192 2 года назад

Yeah that's what I thought too

@1978JonBullock 2 года назад

Rob, Chris, once I was sure you guys had it sorted quickly the first thought I had was how much more mowing Chris would get done in that nice weather. Everyone learning along the way.

@Zephieish 2 года назад

Is that a private plate, guys? I reckon an accountant boss would pay good money for that!

@fookdatchit4245 2 года назад

Rob and Chris always cheer me up. Thanks lads

@mrman17 2 года назад

I suspect the noise was where the section with the missing ribs on that belt was getting pinched between the pulleys and tensioner wheel. It may have just needed a belt, but it was still worth putting the pump and tensioner on it anyway.

@froggy0162 2 года назад

This is what I came into say. It was absolutely this.

@cruz0020 2 года назад

I have the same car, had a similar sound coming from the engine. Luckily the mechanic is a cousin of mine as it was indeed only a damaged belt the culprit. Could easily have been ripped off.

@hfraat25 2 года назад

a wide range of vehicle you tackle. wide range of faults. wide range of viewers and experience. a lot respect to you and the viewers working together. gets results. Well done everyone involved.

@gibfear Год назад

Just had this, garage convinced it's knackered.... I tested it by pulling the manual release out on the friction wheel and silence! Even more shocking on more inspection there were 3 small "blisters/bumps" on outside the belt. Changed the belt, fixed - from scrap car to fixed in 15 quid!!! How many cars have gone to the grave, or had the expensive timing chain "death rattle" diagnosed for a stupid envirocrap over complicated setup, it's absolutely stupid.

@akaDavidWebb 2 года назад

Absolutely extraordinary. What an amazing community and outcome. You guys must have smiles all round!

@Honky_Konky_Phooey 2 года назад

How funny I did one today at work. The bath plug tensioner as I know it , no fecking room on the mini to get your hands in🤦‍♂️. I would avoid the garage that suggested a new engine. Disgraceful 😡

@stevewhite1444 2 года назад

Watching that water pump set up, exactly the same as my R55 mini. Just had the pulley replaced as the rubber wears away and gets noisy on the idler set up. The thermostat housing on these are notoriously bad, we keep them on the shelf and do two or three a week and those pulleys and belts. The double wheel idler set up is another common problem. Loving all the videos guys as always the best content on you tube for me 👍

@Stuart_Johnson_Solutions 2 года назад

Yeah it's a clutch. The vag 2.0 engine has a similar electric clutch on its mechanical water pump to get it warm really quickly. . That fails just before the cam belt is due!

@florencedoberman8336 2 года назад

I wouldn't mind betting that a lot of people have been stitched up with this fault. Great video 👍👍

@stuartsims7192 2 года назад

Hi. I work for mini. When the belts have chunks out of them it causes the water pump drive unit to knock against the pump pulley

@teddyQuake 2 года назад

yes that is true ,i did the chain thinking it was that, but it was the rubber off a section off the water pump pully, and was hitting the metal tensioner , take note guys

My 208 gti made same noise was also the other pulley was out of balance it has a anti vibration thingy majig lol it turned out to be that so have that silly plastic tenstioner if anyone needs one

@davep4589 2 года назад

I think I’m more shocked this was actually a school day for Chris, something he didn’t know 😉😉, but I’ve always said nobody knows everything just some know more than others, and there’s not a lot Chris doesn’t know, watching his face and explaining it was brilliant, really happy this turned out a quick fix and tbh it was perhaps more informative than you realise

@neilgott1168 2 года назад

I think you will find the noise is where there is a chunk out of the belt because it drives off between that and the pulley

@letsfixit1594 2 года назад

100%

@jamiepaton5449 2 года назад

I have had this problem before and you would be very surprised to find that the chunks out the belt can cause bottom end type noises. Glad it's an easy fix guys

@timmellor6685 2 года назад

Rob,so pleasing to see you and Chris so happy with this easy fix thanks to others suggestions,so pleased for you both,it makes up for the headaches you sometimes get ( ie rs 2000).

@autosport3081 2 года назад

I hope that You and Chris replaced the water pump friction wheel and have not used the old tatty one as there is no rubber left on it,I'm saying this because I didn't see a brand new shiny one fitted.
