Question Alternator change / V70 Tdi..

Hi everybody.. Happy New Year to you all..

It seems for the greater number of my posts about my 1998 V70 Tdi CD I'm in France with a problem.. ha ha..

To get straight to the point, my alternator is shot, and I've got to change it. I've got a new one coming from Germany at a very reasonable price, and with luck it should be here sometime next week, so.. I need to start getting my head into mechanics mode.

Now.. I've done just about everything to this car, including two engine rebuilds, so I'm pretty conversant with it, but.. being a really OLD guy now.. the old memory isn't what it was. So if any of you can refresh my memory as to removing the alternator from the D5252T lump I'd be most grateful.

I'm pretty sure the engine cover and steering fluid pump has to be moved, cos there doesn't seem to be a lot of room, to get what is quite a large alternator.. out.

Many thanks in advance for any ideas.. Dave..
