whoops my aircon compressor dropped off
if you have had a garage damage your aircon compressor and the lugs break letting it drop off the engine, it is possible to carry on with a shorter belt 1155mm long

Re: whoops my aircon compressor dropped off
dunno if yours is a simalar set up to the Hdis,
but ibinned my Air-con comp, and fitted a none air-con belt,
Not sure if your Xud wouid need an Aditional pulley or not tho,
Might be worth asking someone if they couid kindly upload a diagram offa service box or the like to confirm,

Are you making a statement or asking a question?
My mate has taken his air con compressor off and fitted a shorter belt.
Re: whoops my aircon compressor dropped off
yes, the shorter belt works wonders

The garage damaged it, then the garage can bloody well fix it then, can't they? Damned cowboys. Don't let them get away with sh*t work.

Re: whoops my aircon compressor dropped off
The Lugs for the Air-con comp, are part of the sump,
so theyd have to Replace the sump,
gets me How theyve Managed to break them off, even if they over tightend the bolts, theyd just cross thread surely,
Iwouid ask them to do all the Repairs for free, if its them at Fault keep your Reciept for the Aux belt if youve already replaced it, and hand it too them,

Re: whoops my aircon compressor dropped off
The lugs on the sump are fine, it's the lugs on the pump which are broken, all I can guess is that he mistakenly jacked the engine up using the aircon compressor whilst the engine mount was off.
