Re: Timing belt cover rubbing? Thumping noise...

I just had this happen to a car a couple weeks ago... The inner cover mounting bushing had gone to **** and/or cover cracked and allowed the cover to push out. MY fix was to use a 6x1mm bolt with a fender washer in place of the original bolt. This grabbed onto the cover and pulled it back in... This is on the driver's side right? Prob the bolt behind the cam gear so you will have to work through the holes in the gear w/ just the front cover off
