the dephaser pulley its making a several noise

[Demi]

I bought for my 172 ph1 the dephaser pulley cause began to make a diesel noise
also bought the cambelt. cause the other stuff has 30.000kms

The question is.. if this dephaser pulley make noise.. im losing power in my car?? mean its a slow f4r???? lol

Here in argentina the price is dephaser pulley $1300 around 230 pounds, but i paid like 1300 pounds
and the cambelt $350

To expensive have this car here!! but is unique!!

 

[Demi]

any?

what are you actually asking mate?

i have a faulty dephaser pulley, but i dont have any loss in power

 

[Demi]

that`s what i want to know. IF the dephaser pulley works bad, the car lose power?? or it`s the same?

from what iv heard it just makes the car sound like a diesel, yet doesn't effect performance wise,

That's the impression I'm under, too.

i have no loss of power which is said above lol
its just the noise
sometimes a quick oil change quitens or sometimes silences it
in my case it made it worse lol
its usually because of non regualar oil changes that the dephaser gets noisy too

 

[Demi]

strange, i regular change the oil. and oil filter also. always the original oil 10.000kms and change the oil. same for the other filters. and the sparkplugs!

thx to everybody

 

[Dunn]

so do i

but did the previous owner? has it been done regulary from new?
i change oil every 6 months but mines still gone lol

 

[Demi]

the previous owner did it regular like me, he had the car for 9 years! its a friend. Here we dont change by month the oil. 9.000kms its the perfect number!
