Help please! We have got a whistle/squeek which sounds like its coming from the single belt. After checking the belt, i can deflect it with my thumb about 2inches, so i think i need to tighten it. Does anyone know where the adjuster for the lower belt is please?

The single belt you are on about is the air con belt - to adjust it you are better to do it from underneath the van - it is the small pulley - to adjust it you loosen the bolt on the small pulley and turn the adjuster until the slack is taken up then retighten the bolt. :)

It should be tight enough to just twist it through 90 degrees.
