Hey guys,
Fan belt just snapped on my 1.8 na. Power steering went too. Is this powered by the same belt or a separate one???
Cheers :)

Hold on here..

the FAN is not directly driven..it is electric..

One belt is for the alternator and water pump..the other belt is for Power steering and AC...

Look to see what is broken!!

lol, this happened to me too.

my car died at the top of a hill so i rolled it backwards in neutral, got some speed and hooked into a parking lot and into a parking spot (quite safely and smoothly i might ad;) ). Had my roomie pick me up and got to kragen for a belt and in ~5 minutes i was back on the road! :D

hop in your car, start it up, turn the wheels, if you have power steering then your alternator/water pump went out.. visa versa

I was heading to a interview begining of the year and the alternator/water pump belt went out, car didnt overheat just wouldn't rev past idle, sucked pushing it and running/walking for 3 miles lol
