My friends X type needs a crankshaft pulley, its making a clattery noise and when turned off you can feel it is loose.

 

I have changed a number of crankshaft pulleys on HDi engines, but the X type looks different so i want to ask is there any guide on here i tried the search function which didn't bring any results.

Hi Kieron,

 

The pulley has been modified, where as originally it was a single crank pulley. Because there was a noise at idle there has been smaller pulley attached to the crank pulley to counter balance the weight stopping the rattling noise at idle. The belt tensioner should also be replaced (supplied in the kit, made by Dayco)

 

Here is a link to one that I found on the internet   http://www.fordparts...el_kit_1917.htm 

The kit is the same for the Mondeo TDCi engine and the pulley can also be purchased through Ford.

 

Hope that helps?
