On motorway last night and battery charge warning came on the dash, noticed as changing lanes that the steering had gotten heavier and then after another 20 minutes of "I can make it home before it dies" about every warning light came on and I lost power. Taken home on a low loaded as the belt that drives the alternator and the PAS pump had shredded. In daylight this morning I can see a pulley that looks knackered which would explain why the belt wasn't happy. Photo below.
It's a 1999 CLK W208 320 petrol.
Can someone tell me if this is fixable at home, special tools required etc. or a trip to the dealer/specialist? Cost of parts if anyone's done it recently?
Thanks
