320d crankshaft pulley help

[DieselFan]

Hi there

So my crankshaft pulley is giving me some issues.

Apparently corteco is the manufacturer of the bmw ones.

bmw wants R6000 for the damper.

The corteco ones on ebay are 139pounds. Now i found one for the land rover td4 for 90 pounds. Which to my knowledge is the same engine? Could anyone confirm this? Here is the link.

What issues are you experiencing bud ?

I'll make a video.

Never mind you can't really see it as I can't hold the camera dead still. It's vibrating quite a bit my whole engine is vibrating badly on idle. I have a noise similar to that of a card hitting a bicycle spoke if thay makes sense at above 2k rpm.

My mech looked at it and said it's the damper.

Anybody know the td4 engine?

Hi. Maybe we can do a group buy. My car is parked off for 2 weeks now. Same issue. But I can't drive mine cause the pully wobbles and throws the belts off.

I saw on ebay they have the same ones for our car for 200 dollars.

Pls let me know what u decide.

Also who is going to change urs.

Hi there people very new to this. I have a BMW e90 330d 2005. My crank pulley just went starting smelling burnt rubbe and tight steering. Phoned the agents they want 8k for a new (must be crazy to pay that). I did sum research and found that the corteco one is the one to buy as it's the same as original just branded difrently. If sum1 can please advise how I cud go about purchasing one online will be highly appreciated. Also was told not to use the masterparts crank pulley as they wont even last a month but they selling them for R2000. I'm in Cape Town South Africa. Any feed back will be apreciated.

Hey dude. Try contact Gert at OBDworx he gets pretty good prices on OEM stuff. I bought my pulley off ebay. I would just bite the bullet and buy oem

I suppose this is not OEM, so does anyone know if it is any good as opposed to this vibration damper pulley. From http://www.g-drive.co.za/
