1994 C280 replacing serpentine belt and alternator
 

Hello all,

I'm interested to see if anyone could help me with how to go about replacing the serpentine belt and alternator on my 1994 C280. I had the serpentine belt changed by a not so bright mechanic and suspect that he installed it incorrectly. It's loose right now and I'm thinking that the automatic tensioner is not working because the belt was incorrectly installed.

Can anyone help out? Thanks

I got it figuired out in the event that anyone else is curious how to remove the serpentine belt and replace teh ACC Belt Tensioner.

It wasn't fun but it can be done without having to remove the radiator.
