quick question help please!

Post by podge1 »

iv got my car booked in , in a weeks time for a cambelt change, and when i checked my car this morning i noticed another belt which is badly worn, and hanging on by a thread :shock: . if you stand at the drivers side of the car, and look into engine bay, its a belt at the bottom left hand side. i need to know what it is so i can order it, incase it takes longer than a week.
help me please!
cheers

If it's a very thin belt it could be the power steering belt (if your car has PAS).
