This is a V-ribbed belt, also known as a serpentine belt, which drives multiple accessories such as the alternator, power steering pump, and air conditioning compressor. Manufactured to meet stringent OEM quality standards, it provides consistent tension and durability, unlike a worn belt that may slip or break. Operators might observe a high-pitched squealing noise from the engine bay, especially on startup or under load, or notice a lack of function from driven accessories like the alternator or power steering.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Inspect mating surfaces for wear before fitting. Use torque specs from service manual. Replace gaskets and seals as a set — reusing compressed gaskets causes oil leaks. Clean all oil passages with compressed air.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
A high-pitched squealing noise, particularly when the engine is started or under heavy load, is the most common symptom of a worn or slipping V-ribbed belt. If the belt continues to degrade, it may eventually break, causing a loss of power to essential accessories like the alternator and water pump. A broken belt will lead to rapid battery discharge and potential engine overheating.
Release tension on the belt using the tensioner pulley before attempting to remove the old belt. Ensure the new belt is correctly routed around all pulleys before releasing the tensioner.
Inspect the belt tensioner and all idler pulleys for proper function and wear when replacing the V-ribbed belt.
