Since the colder weather has set in my car has developed a very irritating squeal from the auxiliary belt and it will not shut up even after driving 40 or so miles on the motorway, Is there any quick remedies out there or is it defo time for replacement? If so I been told there are two different belt/roller kits showing for my reg number so how do I know which one I need? Its a '96 850 t5 CD manual if that helps

My has the same problem and it`s either roller on the sprung tensioner or the plastic pulley.
