Needing advice please all - 2lte engine ancillary components

I had a nosey at mine today just making sure all is well, but there does seem to be a problem, what is it the sits lowest on the drivers side, driven of the crank then upto I think the air con compressor, whatever it is the pulley does not look like its turning, it also looks like its sitting at an angle, like it's dropped slightly at the back

Hi Mick,

Yes the A/C compressor is drivers side lowest, but remember it has an electric clutch so the belt drives the outer ring only until the A/C calls for the compressor, at which stage the clutch locks and the pulley turns to pump the refrigerant around.

Not sure about angles, try switching the A/C on and see if it sounds OK, I'd imagine it would squeal and complain if it was wrong.
