Tensioning serpentine belt

Recommended Posts

Can anyone tell me what i can use to do this on a G60 engine? I know your meant to use a special tool which i dont have. I have a 10" G clamp which doesnt seem big enough, do i need a bigger g clamp? If so what size and where do people attach it to compress the damper, any help appreciated.

You can get the tensioner on and off by hand, you just need to lean on it and give it a tap with a hammer :lol:

Thanks for that, didnt even need a hammer in the end. I realised that by holding the bracket as forward as possible on its pivot its far easier to get in on. Just pushed on :) and theres me ringing vw to get a price for the special tool lol was meant to ring back but no need now. Im sure it would have been funny.
