hey guys what does the top pully run on a mivec fto mine is making noises and i gotta order a new one so what does it run

what you mean top pulley? The top small one outside your timing case? Or the big one under your timiing case?

hey guys it is the large one outside the timing case does anybody know what this runs

Geeze your not narrowing them down. Towards the firewall is the alternator.

hey guys sry it is closer to the front of the engine bay it is the largest pulley on the car it is very large and sits closest to the front of the engine bay

powersteering/ aircon belt by the sound of it

now this is your chance to learn something here. dont just take the easy road

have a look closely at it, what comes of it metal lines? electrical wires, hoses, follow the hoses or metal lines. see where the go. then after all that you cant work it out we will tell you. good luck

You should be a teacher

ok i had a look and i now that it isint the power steering as i have had that replaced already and now when i hit mivec some times it doesn't kick in properly and bogs down then it kicks in . It is happening more frequently now, like i floor it get to mivec point and the noise changes to a really deep noise then back to the normal noise. I take my foot of the accelerator so i dont blow the damn car up haha. SO yeah it has only been happening since this pulley noise has come about

Tensioner, Alternator MD303884 4100Y (about $45)
Pulley, Valve Timing MD179597 3360Y (about $36)

These prices are for new genuine parts. This doesnt include commisson or postage, but will give you an idea of cost.

MIVEC is not controlled by a pulley. You're still not making any sense.
What is the pulley driving? Is it just an idler or tensioner pulley, or is it the air con/ alternator/ balancer/ power steering pump pulley?
Either way, a pulley wont f**k up MIVEC, thats computer controlled, its a camshaft thing, and there's no point trying to describe it to you at this point of time for obvious reasons.

just post a pic of it and show everyone what your talking about.

that'd be the easiest thing to do.
