can anyone out there tell me whats involved in replacing the alternator/air-con belt guide and tensioner? looks to me like i'll have to drop the engine!

The drive belt replacement requires a very long flat blade screw driver to help guide the belt to the very top.

The belt tensioner will require lowering the rear or the front subframe/engine, not really something you want to undertake unless to have a good mechanical knowledge.
