So... As ive searched about the forum, by the sounds of my car and the threads on here i'd say my 172 needs the ''belts'' done.
I dont know much about engines, im just wondering if someone could tell me which parts exactly that i would need done.
its a 2003 172 WITH aircon. the car has covered 85k, the previous owner said the belts were changed at 65k but he had no proof.
when the car is on idle, it makes a pretty loud noise as if its a belt thats about to go, and when i get to about 4000 rpm there are some flat spots in the accelaration, i read this can be caused by a worn dephaser pulley.
any info would be much appreciated, thanks.
