Lovely part of the world. At least you’re not going to get nagged at on the way |

I’ve never had an issue with AF parts in the past but this one pulley was definitely wobbling compared to the genuine one, getting it booked in to be sorted, 2012 Range Rover Westminster 4.4 TDV8

Just got the car back from my local indi who hopefully has fixed the problem in time for my trip to the gaff in north wales, after stripping it all down again and checking everything they found the power steering pump pulley wasn’t running true, turns out the rear bolt had done a runner 😳 this caused the pulley to twist and this was the cause, all back together and so far running ok, fingers crossed it stays that way

That fits with the belt being OK while idling but coming off on a short drive as the PS pump would only be under load when turning corners. |

I think it'd be more to do with oscillating faster at higher revs, faster than the tensioner could deal with allowing the belt to jump sideways. |
