The nut for the tensioner is 15mm  ;)

Put spanner on nut in the middle of the tensioner (although I use a socket on a T bar) lever to the right (as you stand facing the front of the car).  The whole lot moves to the right slackening the belt in the process.  That's it  :y :y

15mm ring on tensioner bolt, turn clockwise to release tension, slip belt off, may have to undo one of the A/C pipe brackets to completely remove

Yippee!

Bought a longer extension bar and it came off easily?

Next question I need to remove the water pump so I have removed the metal cover, do I now need to remove the plastic cam belt cover or is there another route?

TIA
