aux belt with air con 172

[Kieran..]

my car is going in to my garage tomorrow, and just want to see if people been to local garages to have just the aux belt changed? obviously wouldnt have my cambelt changed by them but as it was difficult to find transport to get my car to jms when its not running

they havent given me a rough guide to how long, so anyone had it done by a local garage before?

Make sure that they change the idler and tensioner aswell.

possibly the worst car to do an aux belt on if you haven't got some form of special tool to do it!

really? obviously because theirs no room in the engine bay?
