Re: X20XEV Ecotec "Screeching" Help!!!!

Found a new pulley for £47, which is more realistic....

.....next question, does anyone know the latest part number for the 4 securing bolts. The ones on it have the Torx tupe heads.

Cheers

X20XEV Ecotec "Screeching" Help!!!!

Hi. Firstly, I'm new to the forum so hello everyone. There certainly seems to be some great info on here. I have a 2.0 Ecotec GLS Auto in Polar Sea Blue. It's been in the family from new and has 86k on it. It's generally in very nice condition indeed, almost rust free and used lightly all it's life....
