WinkHi All
names Dave or more commonly known as Dodgy. Cool Huh

I bought my Omega about 5 weeks ago as the everyday car, TBH, i haven't had much luck with it though Sad
the final straw was the Alternator belt breaking whist is the outside lane of the M54 motorway last monday, fun  Roll Eyes
been having to use the nice day car since
ce la vie

anyway, as the belt broke into small strips, i havnt got a clue how the new one goes on Questioning
can anyone email a picture/drawing of the layout of the belt please Wink

thanks again for the welcome,
And a big thank you to Markjay for suplying the picture, the car is sorted now, that belt took 10mins to fit ( i had removed the s/s pipe from the manifold to the plenim so that time not inclued) the a/c belt however took a lot longer.
it seems that Halfrauds list the belt as a 780 , when we found the one that fitted was a 813?
once we had the correct belt, i would say the entire job took 45 mins
thanks chaps, back on the road in the everyday car.
