Four-cylinder petrol engines 1.6, 1.8 l.
The ribbed V-belt is wider than the conventional V-belt and has several longitudinal ribs. The ribbed V-belt drives the alternator, power steering oil pump, radiator fan and, depending on equipment, also the air conditioning compressor.
Withdrawal
1. If the belt is to be installed again, it is necessary to mark the direction of its rotation. To do this, an arrow is applied to the belt with a felt-tip pen in the direction of its rotation. The engine, looking from the right side of the car, rotates to the right, that is, clockwise.
2. Loosen the belt tension. To do this, turn the tensioner with a wrench in the direction of the arrow.
3. In this position, insert the appropriate rod (W 4.5 mm, length 55 mm), such as AUDI-3090 or drill rod. Thus, the tension device will be fixed.
4. Remove the V-belt.
Installation
1. Slide the V-belt over the pulleys.
Warning: When installing a used belt, pay attention to the direction of rotation of the belt. The engine, looking from the right side of the car, rotates to the right, that is, in a clockwise direction. Installing the belt in the opposite direction results in increased belt wear.
2. Press the tensioner in the direction of the arrow and remove the AUDI-3090 rod. Then slowly release the tensioner, while making sure that the belt is in the correct position on the pulleys. The belt tension is set automatically.
3. Start the engine and visually check the operation of the belt.
