Just bought a 02 1.25 fiesta for the mrs as her first car and there are a few little niggles i want sorting.

First, when on idle theres a sort of spinning whurring sound but when you press the clutch in it goes! Is that the release bearing?

Also theres a noise coming from the altenator. It works fine but could it be on its way out?

Also when on full lock it makes a noise from the pump i think, but think my mums Seat ibiza does that aswell so hopfully its nothing to worry about!


Only reason i want them doing is i just did pads and discs and found out hanbrake cable was seized which wore down the shoes, and all the shit ruined the bearing and brake cylinder!
