How to replace the serpentine belt in a Volkswagen Caddy van?

Model: Volkswagen Caddy MK 3, 2K - Years 2003-2020
Part: V-belt

In this tutorial we can see how to replace the serpentine belt in the Volkswagen Caddy van, a simple operation but requiring good manual skills. First of all, we lift the front right side, taking the necessary safety measures, then we remove both the wheel and the inner cover of the wheel arch. We then cut the old belt, attach it to the alternator, and, using both the appropriate tool provided with the replacement and a socket wrench, we secure it to the pulley by turning it clockwise. At this point, all that remains is to reassemble everything following the reverse procedure.
