P.a.s pump falling off!

Post by Spankmaster »

Hi guys has anybody heard of the pas pump bolts slackening off or sheering causing the pump to fall down and rub on the tensioner on a c20xe? Iv only ha the car 2weeks but I can only assume the previous owner has been messing about in there and left bolts slack. I can't see this being a common occurrence but if anyone else has an idea how this happened that would be great. :)

I think you answered the question yourself there. Can only be loose bolts. Maybe put some locktite on the tread just for peace of mind.

Ive never heard of anyones falling off or even coming loose before now so its probably just a one off.
