How to remove the alternator of an Audi A3

Model: Audi A3 MK 2, 8P - Years 2003-2013
Part: Alternator

Before we can start, we will necessarily have to open the front hood. So let's start by disassembling the entire air filter block, unscrewing the screws that secure it and removing the relative sleeves. Once this is done, we will need to remove the top engine cover as well. At this point we will have to loosen the belt tensioner using a 16 mm wrench. Once this is done we will remove the bolts that secure the alternator using a 13 mm wrench. Once these bolts are removed, we can easily remove the alternator. By the time we have completed this last step, we will have successfully completed the disassembly.
