Question
how to change serpentine belt mercedes 2000 E240

Answer
It is necessary to remove the tension from the automatic adjuster. This requires a long prybar and socket. The belt can then be removed. When replacing, once routed, the tensioner has to be compressed again in order to fit the belt on the last pulley.
