Part: V-belt

In this tutorial we can see how to replace the serpentine belt in the Mini One, a simple operation but one that requires good manual skills. First of all, we lift the front right side of the vehicle, taking all necessary safety measures, then we remove both the wheel and the inner cover of the wheel arch. We then disconnect the intercooler tube indicated, remove the belt cover, loosen the tension of the belt tensioner using a socket wrench and keep it in position by inserting a 4mm pin into the indicated hole. At this point, we can remove the belt, place the replacement following the diagram and reassemble everything.
