ok I'm not looking at my car right now but I'll try to walk you through it by memery..
I think think everything is 12mm


- disconect (-) from battery
- disconect (+) and (-) from alternator
- on the right side of the alternator there is an adjustment bolt for belt tension and one bolt that goes into the alternater...loosen the one the that goes into the alternator
- then you should be abile to flip the adjustment bolt up and out of it's bracket
- then on the bottom rear of the alternator there is a bolt that goes through the whole asembly...loosen that
- then you should be abile to push the alternator up and towards the rear of the car which will allow you to remove the belt
- then just remove the bolt on the bottom and the bolt that goes in on the front right that you loosend earlier and it should drop out...you might need a hammer and a hole punch or something similar to remove the lower longer bolt
- when re-installing it your adjustment bolt should slide back into the bracket with a little force and should retain roughly the same tension if you didn't unscrew that bolt.
- if when you start the car the belt squiles every time. just give that adjustment bolt a few turns clockwise to tighten it a little more...make sure the bolt that goes into the alternator is loose when adjusting though...

well thats just off the top of my head so good luck...it's pretty straight forward

disconnect - terminal on battery.


there is a through bolt on the bottom

and a transverse adjuster bolt that is connected to a slider bolted to the alternator...

before removing or loosening them loosen the positive wire on the alternator, unhook the connector and undo the powersteering electrical connector so you can move the wires out of the way (you may also need to undo the connectors on the oil cooler)

now remove the upper thru slider bolt (not the adjuster bolt it will come out with the slider too)

then remove the thrubolt at the bottom and take the alternator out the bottom.
