Bit demented but.. I can't remember

If my 2001 D2 V8 has ACE or not.


I have to get a serpentine belt (just in case... when I take it to mechanic to find squeak would rather have belt ready to go than have him pay over a hundred for it from the local ex dealer)...


'She's done close to 125xxxkm now (I've had since 90xxxkm, and have not changed the serp. belt in that time though I think Clubagreenie may have told me it was due for it.. upon purchase.. )

Easy way is how many tops are on the power steering bottle. One top no ACE, two tops PAS + ACE. Simples

[Chops]

Of course,, if it handles like its on rails,,, you've got ACE ;)

[Pedro_The_Swift]

They are long:o!
but fairly easy to do,
if you dont have a RAVE pic, just draw the loop/sequence by hand, it can only really go back on "one way"

ACE and AC is a 7pk2745, your's doesn't have ACE so it will be slightly shorter.

Ill add pics of the threading, if anyone has the other numbers to add for reference.

looks about right by comparison of the path images, would need about an extra 400mm to wrap the ACE pump
