Thanks for sharing your knowledge ! I'm 55 and I used to turn wrenches for a living back in the late 70's but SO much has changed under the hood since then that I've been somewhat hesitant to work on newer cars. Your videos are super helpful. Thanks again !

What size is the belt

[@peteunderdown6889]

Thank you thank you thank you. You showed the right way to do it, showed it from all the key angles, and narrated all the key steps. I never would have found that hidden little allen bolt that locks the compressor belt tensioner. My first time messing with belts, but I did the whole job in half an hour. If I had gone into it with just my Hanes guide I'd probably still be under there!
Unfortunately I needed to get it done right away so I bought the belt locally instead of ordering from your website. Just want you to know I'm grateful!

Thank you for the tutorial. I wish it was as easy as the Jetta, though. Only have that top tensioner and one belt. Lost an entire morning just trying to get to those 6mm allen bolts because my hands barely fit between the tensioner and the fans.

+1A Auto Parts I have followed your tutorial and done it exactly the same way. And the result was fantastic.
thank you for this great tutorial.

1A Auto Parts Absolutely. But two questions though: Do you lot sell engine parts for code AZM & Do you ship to Sweden?

[@dhad9121]

[@jesusedierhernandez1526]

exelent video whitout it i cant do it,saves me like 2 hours of head scratching,thank you great help my belt is off

[@justinkremer7371]

Ty so much, I have been looking for a good video for my 98 Audi A4, which is essentially the same car, but why do I have a separate belt for the power steering pump and how does it come off?

[@iankelly6663]

Do you have to replace tensioner aswel when replacing belts on passat tdi b5fl had a garage do them last time charged my a fortune cause he took the whole front end of car so look at doing them myself this time

[@levisobczuk2569]

Do you have to uninstall the A/C belt in order to replace the Power steering/Alt belt? I only need to replace the big belt.

[@scch101]

Great !! thank U for this video !

[@Norrish100]

Hey would this work on my audi a6 5v turbo engine?

[@DukDodgers2]

Volkswagen REALLY could have given a couple more inched in the front of this engine. Unfortunately, this isn't the only pain in the tail thing to repair on the Passat.

[@justinkremer7371]

So there a "service position" where you pull the front clip forward to gain more access, in case you weren't aware.
