I am sorry, but I need it in URGENT!!!
Please just go to your car (both 172 or 182 is fine), take a close pic of the aux belt area, it is on the left side of of the engine (driver side).

The reason is - I found the cover is lost after I had the cambelt changed. Fxxk!!!!
I will going back to the garage and ask them "what is going on" later today.

No wonder why I got some weird noise afterward.

Basically, what we should do in this case??? I mean - how to clean it? And do I have to reoil some area???

It was 4am when you posted....:S :sleepy: give it another 2 hours and someone may wake up and help.

Yes, I know.

Well, see this pic. I want a close pic of the guard plate that sit next to the aux belt.

A diagram from the dialogy CD of the plate is very welcome too.

Thanks!!!!

Do not oil the cambelt. You should be fine as long as nothing got in there i guess.

Basically, what I found is the aux belt guard plate dropped to the bottom, can anyone tell me how it is being secure???

thanks!!!

I just contact with the garage guy, he said he mean to remove it because it is secured by the rivet that is same as the wheel arch. And it is easy to get loose if you don't use the new rivet. But I told him mine was fell off to the bottom. Well, will check next Monday.

But he said there are 2 guard plates, one top and one bottom. Also, MK1 don't even have it. And actually, most japanese car don't have the guard plate too.
