Audi a4 fan belt

[kidgreen61]

1996 audi a4 1.9 tdi

The fan belt has broken, and I've bought a replacement but can't find a diagram anywhere to show me which way to fit the belt around the pulleys.

Thanks in anticipation.

Two belts on these?
Starting at the crank pulley and anti clockwise, up and over the water pump, down around the PAS pump. Then vertically up and over the alternator, then down under the cooling fan, up over the tensioner and back down to the crankshaft pulley.
The other one:
From the crank pulley, to the air con compressor, under the tensioner and back to the crank.
Hope this helps...one day I'll learn how to post pictures

Thanks John, mine has one belt, no air con, & a total of 6 pulleys to go round.

Do you know if it can fiitted with rad in place?

I'd be having a bloomin' good try but I've never had to do one this way....I've only done timing belts which means the complete front end has to come off
However the book time is 1.5 hours for this job so I suspect it has.
Wishing you luck!
