after pulling out from work yesterday and getting about 200 metres down the road i hear a bang and lost my power stearing so i pulled over to take a look. my aux belt tensioner had fallen to peices and the wheel had dissapeared down the road, luckily i wasnt moving to fast as i was coming up to a roundabout and the belt had just slipped off and doesnt appear to have been damaged. the belt was replaced about 6 months ago. as it was abank holiday i couldnt get hold of anywhere to buy a new belt tensioner so ill get hold of one today but im just wondering about the routing of the belt itself as

hi guys, i finally found time to fit a new window regulator on the drivers side door as the cable snapped on the old one. however i have a slight problem. the electric window works fine but when it goes up and down there is a horrible grating noise coming from somewhere. i spoke to a friend and he said he had a similar problem when fitting one on an mr2 and sorted it by slightly loosing the bolts that hold it in. now im gonna give that a try when time alows but has any1 else had similar problems when fitting a new window regulator. the part i fitted was bought from german and sweedish.

cheers mate ill get onto it this weekend
