[Vwdiesel] Alternator lower mount becoming oblong

[Milt Kaplan]

Why is this mount on the case wearing to an oblong shape? It's at the point where the belt can no longer be adjusted to be tight.  I think Roger B or someone made a repair by drilling a bigger hole thru alternator case and support bracket then putting thru a larger bolt? This is engine with airconditioning using the big support bracket. Seems like it might be difficult to drill out a straight hole thru the support bracket while mounted in vehicle. Milton.
