Technical 53 reg Ducato camper

[Peckerpecks]

Hi this is my first post and I am hoping for some advice please. I have a 2.3 JTD camper based in a LWB Ducato. I've just had the lower pulley wheel changed as I was wobbling all over and I had been told the rubber inside it had delaminated. My van has done 93k which for a camper is quite high but I suppose low for a van. Anyway the wheel still wobbles any ideas? I have attached a video of it. Any help appreciated. Many thanks Dan

Hi sorry for some reason it won't let me post a video but it just shows the bottom pulley wheel wobbling about as though it was a buckled wheel. But it's brand new. Thanks

Hi, and welcome, you can post images after 5 posts..,

common for rubber to break down, also check belt tension is correct ( or they have mounted it correctly..!!),

I know the 2.2 (Peugeot/Citroen) engined pulleys are common, and manufacturers kept on modifying them (when I was working at pug dealers parts) but the aftermarket ones never were modified, (I'm going back a few years)

So kept on failing

The genuine newer versions also had a modified bolt and washer
If these weren't changed along with a mod pulley, you may find the bolt doesn't match or is worn

If iveco engine I personally haven't come across a pulley problem, not to say one doesn't exist

But I also just noticed yours is a 53 plate so might or might not be relevant !
The pug/cit HDi engines might be still fitted in yours though

if its the same type of pulley as 1.9 jtd's there is a small hole on back of pulley which needs to line up with a little pip on end of crankshaft if not lined up it will wobble

did wonder about that too..
BIG question is.. does the inner mount run true - or "out" with the outer part..??, :idea:

Hi the lig is aligned in the locator but it's still wobbling all over. It appears that the shaft in the middle could be out of line. I presume it would be a big job to change this shaft?
