change the PAS belt at the same time.
You only ever need two tools in life. If it moves and it shouldn't use Duct Tape. If it does not move and it should, use WD40.

Adjusting it does work.......



for a very short time!


So replace the belt! They are only 8 quid from ECP, just make sure you get the right size, its bigger for a car with aircon.
