Crankshaft Pulley Issues?

[bongojenga]

I have the same issue... I did the belt, tensioner, alternator, clutch, crankshaft seals, dephaser. Only A/C and crank pully (despite looking completely fine) left to do...

Sounds identical to the noise mine made and my 182 too, both cars a new damper pulley solved it

Did you mean the one that sits in the end of crankshaft? There is no bearing inside that thing. The noise is similar to worn-out bearing noise. I’ll try to drop of the Aux belt. I’m hoping it’s aircon compressor.

yep thats the one, the rubber between the 2 parts dampens vibration, but when it fails it sounds identical to when a water pump bearing fails
