Cut at the two places with a hack saw and 3 minutes later... done, for less $10 you made a tool that competes with the $120 factory tool.

Needed - 545i Compressor Belt Tool #64 1 040-dsc05357-copy.jpg


hold the belt onto the pulley as the factory tool instructions state and walk the belt on. Sorry don't have picture of me walking it on because as soon as I started to walk it on... it just popped on.


Warning please use the proper Conitech (or compatible stretchable belt that stretches) otherwise the belt may snap or break something.
