Im sure well practised members could do it in the dark with one hand tied behind back who knows i might take another look with fresh eyes soon.



To renew the belts you have to go in under the wheel arch.

The liner has to be removed. Special spanner required to take the tension off the drive belt.

I used a plastic tie to hold the spanner back to keep the belt slack. Once the new belt is correctly positioned around the various rollers the plastic tie can be carefully cut. Keep fingers away.---
