Idler puley - torque settings
Hi,
Noticed the idler pulley sitting at the top of the water pump housing of Gertie my TD5 was squeaking ratrher a lot on startup so as I'm replacing an injector thought I'd replace. it. Removed the anciliary drive belt and replaced pulley but nowhere can i find a torque seting for its bolt.

Been through the haynes manual cant even find. a picturwe of how the belt is supposed to be fitted ( pictures of. 200 and 30 Tdis , but not TD5 .. ).

Can someone point me at the correct torque setting for it?

You can just use generic torque settings, this is not a particularly challenged connection:

What is it M10? 50-55 Nm. aka just tight, not crazy tight or two 'click' an a medium impact driver.
