Any tips on fitting the air con belt without the special tool?
I'd be more inclined to pay a member on here to help me fit it all. I'm OK with repairs, can do a full service, repaired brake calipers, changed discs and pads etc but I've never attempted any belt systems.
I'm located in Biggleswade if anyone is reasonably close by and could lend a hand for some cash
You can get the kit slightly cheaper by phoning FRF Volvo in Swansea and quoting code "C3" FYI.

I have the tool for the bottom belt, but someone in another thread said it didn't work for them and they had to loosen the pulley and move it back to get the belt on.. but we'll see..

I'll be doing this job on my S40 over the Christmas break in Hertfordshire. If it goes OK on my car I don't mind coming over to help (if time permits) but after the 7th of January I'll be back up to Scotland. At the very least I can give you some tips if timing doesn't work out.
