Disco 2 Td5 aux belt wont go back on

Danny Borthwick · Jan 2, 2019

Hello,
I have recently replaced the water pump and power steering pump on my disco 2 obviously taking the the aux belt of to do so. Problem is i cant get the belt back on, i would really appreciate if anyone could give me some ideas to what I've done wrong.

The set up is non- ace without air-con, converted from ace previously. I've attached a photo of the belt.

Never had a problem taking one off or replacing it. I assume you are giving yourself plenty of slack by putting a spanner on the tensioner pulley and moving it well clear?

As Si says, make sure you are fully taking the tension off, and I put the belt on all the groved pullyes first then slip it over the top smooth pulley.
HTH,
