Apparently it's quite a common thing with the muti-V belts in XE'd corsas. | |

I had this problem lol easy to do :thumbs: You will need 1 off these CLICK :) Then slacken the bolt at the bottom alt bracket so the alt can move then get an old belt and cut it and adjust the alt to what it should be so the belt would be tight then mark the belt and take it to your local motor factors and they will get you a belt the correct size, then its a case off fitting it and tightning everything up, job done :thumbs: | |

Only way I can think is if you use the bracket that allows the alternator to swivel if you remove it. | |

ive just fitted a c20xe into my corsa b. i think i have the late type alternator as it has no adjustment on it and is multi v .It was adjusted by the idler pulley which i removed along with the p/s pump. how do i go about getting an alternator belt to adjust and what belt do i use |
