1st off you would give everything a good visual examination. Look for
loose alternator belt. Also look for wires that could have
become disconnected or cut that leads to the alternator.
Then you would hook up a volt meter to the battery cables and check the
voltage.
After this you would start the engine and recheck the voltage.
The voltage on a charged battery should read around 12.5 volts. While
the engine is running turn on a few accesories and speed up the idle a
little the voltage should read around 14.5 volts.
If the voltage does not increase suspect either a faulty alternator or regulator.
SOURCE: Problem with Altenator belts Etude
the problem is not the altenator. you should have a idler pully and a self adjusting idler tensioner. if thes e go bad the bearings tend to seize up and break belts i would check these first chance you get the tensioner should be spring like and be hard to move back and forth the pulley part of it should spin freely with out makeing a noise. please rate this
SOURCE: My 2000 Mazda Etude 1.6AC tappets are ver noisy.
If it is the tappets then, get yourself a good flushing oil follow
instructions, then get yourself some 0/40 mobil 1 oil and changew the
oil, if the tappets are still nosiy, then you got lots of money to pay
out sorry but they are hydraulic and cost and arm and a leg to do thats if it is the tappets.
A flush, and a change of oil and filter (only use a genuine Mazda one) normally does the trick. Replacement is expensive, but I have read of people taking them out and cleaning them.
They work like two tin cans, open at one end.. one just slightly larger and sliding over the other so you have a sealed unit. At one end is a one way valve, just a small hole with a sprung loaded
ball bearing to seal it. any dirt in there, and the valve won't seal,
and the HLA won't pump up properly. this gives enough clearence to make
the telltale ticking noise.
Keep us updated.
