Done. I admit to giving up on splitting the tensioner box and had to pay £25 to get it fitted. Not bad because it took him quite a while. Also had to jump the belt on with the starter motor so it's not really a one man job.

Did not have to do that when I fitted a new belt to mine:)
 
Now that it is working fine, I had a look at the manual to see how it should be used.

I'd previouly understood recycling to be to drop the cabin temperature more quickly. It seems not and that it used when passing through areas populated by poor people and brown people.

I'm still not sure about the merit in switching from automatic to semi-automatic. Perhaps that becomes more apparent on longer journeys.

Recirculation does indeed bring the temperature in the cabing down quicker, especially if the outside temperature is 36C as we have had the last few days. I never use it on full auto, I find it's random changing of fan speed and seemingly the temperature of the air supply to the cabin annoying, I use it on manual.
