Aux belt
Can somebody shed some light on this problem where if the aux belt fails it can throw the cambelt off as my 2012 v50 d3 has a plastic guard around the crank and cant see how it would interfere,Also is it more common for the belt to snap or the tensioner to let go as im a bit paranoid from the posts about it.thank you.

You have a robust set up as it is , You cannot comprehend the massive forces involved when a belt breaks at speed , everything in it's path can get broken ... Including any untested un approved devices you care to pay £50 for ...
