anyone got any ideas of what to look for
cratch: Belt?
Alternator bearings, pully bearings, belt? Ivwouldn't drive it until it was sorted if it were mine!
Frayed cambelt or aux belt; something flapping on a placcy cover.

I Agree.
It is a rubber/plastic sound.
It does not sound like a bearing.
Very, very carefully use a stick/bar to the ear to locate area sound is coming from.
cheers chaps will get some new belts to start with and work it from there
First thing I'd do is free; remove the two 10mm bolts holding the top cover over the timing belt and check that bugger for fraying - it's only 17mm wide to begin with. :eek:
Hi,
Did you ever find the cause?
Thanks.
