VW T4 Power Steering Belt Change - Volkswagen Transporter
VW T4 Power Steering Belt Change - Volkswagen Transporter 1.9 Turbo Diesel ABL
There are seven spacers/shims in total, two can be seen on the outside of the pulley under the bolts, and there are five inside. When fitting the new belt, I left the two spacers on the outside as when I placed them inside the pulley, the belt was too slack. When the belt wears and stretches the spacers/shims are removed, this will re-tension the belt as the two halves of the pulley are pushed closer together. This pushes the belt out, causing it to tighten.

Dude this is exactly what I needed. Really ecellent video. I can't work out how loosening the three bolts releases the tension on the belt, but anyway, I'm sure it'll become clear as I do it. Many thanks for taking the time to make the film.
Absolutely superb video, just what I was looking for. Many thanks.
This video helped me a lot ❤ thanks 🙏🏻
Good vidéo friend tanks
Very clear and massively helpful 👍
Just what i needed fella, the bloody thing decided it didn't like its Aux/Serp belt anymore and wanted to shit it all down the road. Come replace and realised i need to remove this belt before hand, Haynes manual was no use, so this has cleared it up. If only i didn't lose my 3/8 allen key a few months ago :(
Brilliant. Really helpful. What size in the belt? I need to get one ordered
Thanks, very helpful!
Thanks...very helpful
How did you tight the belt?
Great vid but how do you get the belt tight. Cheers
Good video. HOWEVER, I still have a question. How do you loosen/ tigthen the belt when you replace it for a new one? I am about to change the pump itself in a friends van and I was wondering which is the mechanism for loosening the belt before replacing the pump and tightening it afterwards.
Is it just a case of loosening that alternator nut at the bottom for replacing the belt mine squeals like a pig think it's at the end of its self adjustment
Cheers helped a lot
What did you use prior to the video to loosen them? Mine are SUPER tight.
So taking away the spacers behind the 3 Allen key bolts adds tension to the belt?
Hi. I don't have the centre one only 3 on the out side. I've tried the impact but seems solid. Is the some sort of cap on the centre one?
Long shot here what size belt did you fit .. as iv tried a new and it's still loose with all shims out
Hi, My T4 as recently got a problem in that I can't trun the wheel when stationary, it makes a loud screeching noise and really hard to turn the wheels, but when driving it drives very well, do you think this is linked to the belt, I'm not very mechanical minded so am I best to get someone else to do it, if it is the belt your tutorial makes me feel I could do it myself,
My belt is still loose with all the shims removed?! Do I need a new belt?
