a friend of mine attempted to change the fan belt in my car now hes really handy with jap cars but said he would give my audi a go....shes a 95 a4 1.9tdi .... he was told loosen the tensioner and it will give slack on the belt to come off but it didnt... tried everything to shift it but it didnt budge.... any idea how to change it?

How did he loosen the tensioner? Its a bit tricky/tight to change.The tensioner is self adjusting so it will have to be pushed/ held back to release the belt.HTH.
