Alternator Pulley. .19tdi.


Recommended Posts

Hi guys in need of help again. :(

I'm fairly certain the noise I can hear is my alternator pulley.

How do I replace this and is it easier if take the alternator off ?

53 plate Octavia mk1 1.9 tdi.

Thanks for any help.

The alternator isn't too hard to remove. It has to come out the top if you aircon.

I used to take the two bolts out of the compressor and drop it down with the pipes still connected. Came out the bottom then, no worries about the pas pump and top hose.

On my mkI it was one bracket which held the compressor and alternator.  But the bracket was T shaped, with the T on it's side (the top of the T is bolted to the block), so if you removed the compressor the bracket was still in the way and you couldn't get the alternator past it.

When I did mine I did remove the power steering pump from the mounting bracket.  But to get to the bolts which hold the pump on you need to remove the pulley.  But you need to loosen the bolts on the pulley before you remove the aux belt or you can't loosen the bolts.  You only need to loosen them a little, then remove the belt.
