Belt tension tool
I found out that Contitech offers a tool to adjust the correct belt tension called Optikrik .
It looks exactly the Porsche Tool #9574 and costs only 9,--€.
There are three different tools available.
Who knows which one is equivalent to the Porsche #9574?
Krikit I Tension Gauge for V-Belts (for correct V-belt tensioning)
Krikit II Tension Gauge for Multiple V-Ribbed Belts up to 70 kg (for correct tensioning of multiple V-ribbed belts)
Krikit III Tension Gauge for Multiple V-Ribbed Belts 70 kg up to 150 kg (for correct tensioning of multiple V-ribbed belts)

Found one that works fine for me and can't beat the price; my fingers. If I can deflect the belt mroe than the belt thickness with a hard push, then I have to tension it more. If it defelcts less than half the belt thickness, time to loosen it. Been going great for years.
