All,

It appears rubber spacer on crankshaft cracked was thrown off. Crankshaft pulley has now moved rearward approximately 1/2 inch - the approximate width of the spacer. Therefore, belt out of alignment and causing issues.

Does this appear to be a simple pulley removal and replacement of the bad spacer? Or could something deeper be at work here?

Thanks in advance for the assist.

Marty

 

CHECK WITH YOUR DEALER. THERE IS A RECALL ON CRANKSHAFT VIBRATION DAMPENERS. YOURS MAY BE PART OF THE PROGRAM.

 

Nickspa,

Thanks. It was a part of the recall program. The MB dealer is repairing it now.
