Aux belt snapped

[Ben94]

So after doing my head gasket I've been driving my car around for a day and the aux belt snapped. Best place to get a kit? My fault as I didn't think to replace it at the time

Renault mate they do a aux belt kit £72 with new tensioner and idler pulley , advised to replace all anyway! your luck it hasn't taken the cam belt with it apparently a common thing !!

Ok cheers! I know I'm happy it didn't damage anything else lol so annoying though

As its only a 1.4 you won't need a kit, just the belt.

That makes it a lot easier! How can I tell she I have the tension right on the belt as I think that's why it may have snapped this time as I couldn't see how to change the tension :S?

 

[Dan@SJM]

You move the alternator iirc

 

[Ben94]

Oh I didn't think you could do that because its bolted in place? On eurocarparts there's about 5 didn't types of belts, I know I don't need one for ac but there's a few that say alternator, or power steering

Can't seem to find the right belt on eurocarparts as there's about 5 to choose from :S?
