I’ve got a very similar noise coming from mine and I’ve got a standard pulley. Thank you for the genius idea 👍🏻

I think by using a piece of tube as you are is safer that a stethoscope. The problem with a stethoscope is is has a solid end so you really need to touch it on whatever you are listening to so obviously not a good idea when listening to anything around a pulley area with the engine running. With using a piece of tube you only need to hold it close to whatever you are listening to so yes a lot better. Good tip Steve thanks👍

My fuel tappet sounds much more metallic, now I don’t know if that’s to do with mic quality and then video rendering and playing through a phone etc. when I listened to mine I used the end of a screw driver and placed my ear on the handle to listen through. (Like the glass to the wall in the movies)

Did the OEM crank pulley have a inbuilt damper? If it did and you removed it you might be hearing the vibration from the crank through the new pulley.

I’ve got the exact same noise, after installing the same pulley!! - Did you figure out what it was?? Cold start it’s a whirr/sand paper type noise every revolution or so, which goes quiet when warm. P.S got my X1 Revolution from you the other day ( instead of from pumaspeed 😉), spot on and quick delivery, Thank you :)

Iv got a feeling the belt could be too tight but not 100%. Il probably end up removing the pulley and going back to standard and thanks for buying a lufi off me 🙂

@@Sparkplugsteve I agree with the belt being too tight, the one they provided me to fit with the pulley has visible lines on the flat side of the belt which as far as i know is an indicator of a tight belt or poor quality at least… I have another belt to swap it with soon so I’ll see if it helps, although I’m inclined to go back to the oem pulley like you just for the sake of saving hassle 😅

@Benzz my belt is like a plastic outer layer and I think it is a cheap one. I may try and belt change first and get one 10mm longer and better quality.

@@Sparkplugsteve I changed my belt to the SKF one, a slightly different size than pumaspeed sent over, saw someone in the states use one and took their sizing for reference; my weird sandpaper type noise on a revolution is now gone. Also, the quality compared to that Dayco belt they sent it much better, no plastic shiny top side it’s a textured rubber like oem now.

Just ordered and S280 and waiting for my Wavetrac LSD to show up. Debating taking a look and cleaning the valves and injectors prior to the turbo going in. Have you had any issues with carbon buildup on the intake valves? Trying to decide if its even worth messing with at 30k miles.
