Behined the auxiliary belt there is another very short belt I think it's for the power steering pump.

Does anyone know how to get it off, I'm assuming the must be some way to tension/slacken the belt off for replacement purposes.

I've tried looking for a youtube video but all I can seem to find are ones about removing/replacing the timing belts or they are not the same model car as mine.

Can anyone post a picture of what the adjuster looks like or better still a link to a video.

My thanks to anyone who can help

Clive
I think you will find it is a stretch belt, it has slight elastic qualities, there is a special tool to help it roll on over the pulleys as you wind it on by turning the crankshaft bolt clockwise.
