106 GTi Alternator belt Tensioner

[VTRelite]

Basically replace my alternator belt tensioner as it was squeaking and annoying me.

However now I cant get the top slider bolt to start and it is pissing me off no end.

The top bolt which you have to loosen.


Anyone else had this issue?

Not letting me look at the link dude?

I just fucked off all the VTS gubbins in favour of a VTR alternator setup. More simplistic, easier to tension, and the alt is farther from the manifold.

Well finally done it. Just got a lever bar down there to gently persuade it to start and amazingly it worked without cross threading anything.

Fucking french shit
