Hi all

Well I've just replaced the tape deck belts, sorted some dry joints, replaced some caps & re-glued the glass panels. It's all working fine.

However - I suspect the drive-belts for the doors need replacing. They are slipping which is causing the belts to squeal. It's most noticeable on power-down, when the door motors run on for a few seconds.

I have already asked, but Dillen doesn't have any available at the moment. Can anyone recommend a good alternative supply? I am all too aware of certain 'eBay' belts causing all sorts of issues. So I want to get the next best belts I can.

Thanks 🙂

Just a quick update, the door belts are still supplied by B&O, unbeknownst to me! So I've ordered some from a UK suppler 🙂
