Drive Belts
The belt drive has two components and is subdivided into the main and A/C drives. Both
belts are driven by the crankshaft pulley.
A 4 rib belt is used to drive the air conditioning compressor and a 6 rib belt is used for the
main drive. Each drive belt has a maintenance free tensioning unit with tensioning pulley
and torsioner.

The tensioning pulley is pushed back using a
Torx tool in the recess provided (1) and fixed in
this position by inserting a locking pin as shown

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The ECM takes on the following functions:
• Activation/deactivation of the alternator.
• Informing the alternator regulator of the nominal voltage value to be set.
• Controlling the alternator's response to load.
• Diagnosing the data line between the alternator and the ECM.
• Storing alternator fault codes.
• Activating the charge indicator lamp in the instrument cluster.
The connection with the ECM makes it possible to equalize the alternator load torque for
nearly all operating conditions. This supports the engine idling speed control and the bat-
tery load balance. In addition, the ECM receives information from the Power Module about
the battery's calculated temperature and charge status. This means that alternator output
can be adapted precisely to the temperature and load status of the battery which increas-
es the battery service life.
The charge indicator display strategy has not changed in comparison with the alternators
currently in use. Regulating the alternator output is particularly important when activating
Valvetronic operating motors.
A temperature protection function is implemented in the voltage regulator. If the alternator
overheats, the alternator voltage is reduced until an appropriate temperature has been
reached.

Leakage Restraint System in the Water Pump
The water pump has a leakage restraint system for the functional leakage from the pump
shaft piston ring type seal. The coolant which escapes through the pump shaft sliding ring
seal usually accumulates and evaporates through a hold in the leakage chamber (evapora-
tion area).
If the sliding ring seal is faulty, the leakage chamber fills
completely with coolant. Sliding ring seal leakages can
be detected by monitoring the fluid level in the leakage
chamber (inspection hole).

In the past, fully functional water pumps were often replaced because the functional
sliding ring seal leakage which is necessary for water pump operation resulted in evapora-
tion residues being left on the external walls of the water pump.
The leakage restraint system has the advantage in that the coolant escaping from the slid-
ing ring seal (normal, functional leakage) evaporates without a trace and cannot be mis-
takenly identified as a water pump defect during visual inspections.

The waterpump mounts to the lower section to
channel coolant to the engine block.
