How to Replace Serpentine Belt?
I have a 2001 S430. How do I replace the serpentine belt? I'm assuming I just need to put a wrench on the tensioner to get the old one off/new one on...

..I have a shop manual on cd rom that shows all the instructions, I could print and fax it to you. .
It says to remove the fan and shroud assembly, Next, using an external torx (size not listed
) rotate the tentioner counter clockwise (from the center of the pully, not the bracket), locking it in place with a 5mm pin. Remove belt, reinstall starting at the tentioner and routing as per diagram. (Usually on core support)
