Finking that cuz the belt only comes off when u nail it... i think its the engine twisting/rocking slightly/enough to put the belt out of alignment...

Gonna try and make a stablizer/brace and see what happens

the altenator and the power steering pum are mounted on the engine... so that wont make any difference + as said above the engine is suppose to move a bit...

There's your problem then. It MUST be bolted to the engine.

On all engines with hydraulic power steering the pump will be bolted to the block somehow. On the 2.0 engine there are 3 lugs in the casting for the block which are threaded so you can bolt a bracket onto the block, you the bolt the PAS pump onto that bracket. If you bought the Cossvaux kit and told them you had PAS they would have supplied you with a modified bracket so you can fit the Corsa PAS pump to the new 2.0 block. If you have had the pump attatched to the chassis then you need to take your car to the person who fitted the engine for you and question thier intentions.
