Its not slipping and only tends to do it in the colder months.I heard on old tale that you put a little Sunlight soap on its ment to shut it up... DOES NOT WORK. I have even tried a little WD40 with no luck . When I wack some WD40 on it it stops but the next day when I start her again im back at the beginning.Thanks in advance←Get a BF!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is nothing wrong with the belt.Did they say what they did to it??← Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like anything rubber it will stretch slightly over time, so re-tightening is necessary. Mine is starting to make a noise again but I havent heard it since the last service (its due in a couple of thou) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the pulleys are squeaking and the belts get blamed a lot.Definately dont get this problem on BF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
