Vectra-B

Sudden noises emerging from the engine compartment, alternator charging light lights up and steering becomes difficult to turn.

Waterpump pulley attachment points break. During previous waterpump repairs, screw sealing compound had not been removed completely of the fixing points, the needed torque on screws being reached without tightening these sufficiently.

No producction problem !

 

 

Remedy:

 

During repair it must be guaranteed that all screw sealing compound is removed before refitting the parts.
