Needs doing.

Is aftermarket stuff o.k. or does it neeeed to be oem?

I got bit once before with shite mintex cheapo brakes.

Oe quality will last longer

Deffo due replacing. Looked like a worn brake disc on the inside.

Do the bolts need any threadlock??

Just got one for our 2.4tdci 115ps from tpuk an it came printed with Ford pat no. and they hadn't quite managed to grind off all the Ford sign on it

Oh new one is apparently modified and just a thin rubber strip between the pulley and centre. Rather than the big heavy rubber jobbie.

Got a cheap £50 job from the local 'factors.

Looked decent enough, time will tell.

Can see a good 3mm difference in the pulleys where the old one has moved closer to the timing case and rubbed on it.
