#1: hdi alterator removal Author: jase1gti, Posted: Sat Oct 26, 2013 8:23 am ---- Is there a guide on how to remove a dodgy alternator on a 2003 2.0 hdi?
Iv had a quick search but was unfruitful. Things look very tight and any guidance would be helpful.
thanks

power steering pump didn't need removing. the auto tensioner did. it was a pain to remove but easy to refit. Hardest part was refitting the belt.
