Aux belt pulley bearing thingy (v6)

[Terrybongo]

Hi all,

I've got our bongo in the garage at the moment to investigate an annoying whirring noise coming from the engine.

After much digging around it turns out to be the bearing in the aux belt pulley

Now the plastic is 18 years old and very brittle. The garage guy is reluctant to try to get the bearing out incase the plastic breaks and at the moment we have had better luck trying to find unicorn poo.

Can anyone help with a replacement part? Or know where I can get one?

Edit: its a 2001 2.5 v6

Many thanks.

Terry

That's the one, thank you. However mine is plastic, not sure if that makes a difference.
