Car was making a really rough noise, so stopped into my mechanic, told me it was just a belt slipping, but it would be ok and to just ignore the noise.

wasnt to happy with the advice, but had to get to work, so drove to work, and then drove home tonight. Half way up the hill...the noise just stopped....cool?

get home, pop the hood....looks like its snapped...and i dont know what its for and weather its ok to keep driving or not.

so it someone could tell me what belt goes round this thing i circled in the pic, and if its a YOU NEED IT bit would be much appreciated.

      Let's face it. 90s turbo 6 with 80s tech in it is not going to be the thing that runs as clean as a whistle.

      No. See below. No. In the specific case of Enthusiast, the wording in the PDS says, explicitly, " We will not pay any claim on a Vehicle with any Modifications not agreed by us and not listed in the Schedule. This includes any Modifications or the fitting of a device that contravenes the requirements of the Australian Design Rules [ADRs] or where allowed, the Australian Vehicle Standards Rules [AVSR]." The 2nd paragraph needs to be read in a different tone of voice from the 1st. The two concepts are connected, but they are two different concepts. The 1st says your mods must be listed and agreed with us. The 2nd effectively says "we won't pay if any mods are not legal". The way that it has been written in more general insurances for a long time has been that if the mod contributes to the accident then you're shit out of luck, but if the mod didn't contribute, then you'll probably get away with it. With "probably" being a very flexible term, and being an insurance company, better left untested than hoped on!

      I'm not surprised, I favour a bit of a richer tune which for sure isn't helping the emission numbers.

      Overboosting is more likely a function of whatever boost controller you are using than the actuator. "Overboosting" is a feature of cheap boost tee type control. If you don't want to see peaks of overboost, you have to set it to not produce them. And that then means you don't run as much boost as you might like elsewhere. That's just life. Electronic boost controllers can generally be set to do a much better job of managing the peak boost.

      Had a good chuckle because it is listing THC g/km. Though it is not tetrahydrocannabinol but total hydrocarbons. Interesting how the numbers seem so much worse compared to Greg's big V8.
