Did you chek your outer tie rods? My '97 did the same thing, and replacing the outer tie rods solved the problem. Greetings, Diego

I recently replaced my timing belt and water pump and have the same noise as you, and no leaks. Do you say that is only break-in and air bubbles in the coolant? I also replaced all the drive belts tensioners bearings with new ones. Sorry for my poor english, Greetings, Diego

Thanks to all for the info.. I have a 97 R50 and the manual says to change the belt every 100.000kms (60.000mi) I changed mine with 110.000kms and the old belt is perfect. I also changed the water pump (Its the original that came with the truck) that was in perfect shape too... But you never know until you take all apart. BTW I put a new Gates belt. I had only one problem. When I first started her, it began to leak coolant from below the lower timing cover. I let her warm, stopped and when I came today to take all apart again to correct the leak, I started her again and no leak ???? It's supposed to be normal or maybe the gasket needed to settle with some heat??? Sorry for my poor english!! Diego from Argentina
