Power steering belt. A4 1.9 turbo diesel
#5
Is it making noise? Squealing on acceleration and such? I'm showing nothing but serpentine belts for these cars. One belt runs the power steering, alternator, and A/C Compressor and it is tensioned by a single spring loaded tensioner. Perhaps the belt just needs replaced. The tensioners generally last a long time. The spring part anyway. Sometimes the pulleys will start to make noise when the bearings on them start to go bad. Doesn't affect the tension though.

Thank you for your time and effort in helping me.
I really appreciate it.
I'm going to check out the alternator as well apparently there is a clutch mechanism behind the pulley that can sieze and that causes the belt to slip and make a noise under load.
Have you heard of that before?
Once again thank you for your help.
