Alternator belt
Having an issue with alternator belt. Broken 4. I have change the pulley. The alternator belt light will turn on once a while at high speed or high rev. not sure which. After i few times the belt would break. Part of the belt was eaten away.
Is the problem belt too tight or loose or could it be the lower pulley?

just a guess, the belts are probably not aligned straight. I had that problem after I changed my alternator, the belts would get real hot after a few minutes. I checked looking from the side and could see where it was slightly off. I played with the pulleys and the spacers until I got it right. make sure to use original porsche belts too
Also there's a washer, that if it's not place the right way , < or >, will cause the belt to eventually break.
