This is a V-belt, specifically an 8-rib, EPDM type, designed to drive various engine accessories such as the alternator, water pump, and air conditioning compressor. Manufactured from durable EPDM rubber, it offers superior resistance to heat, oil, and cracking compared to older belt materials, ensuring reliable power transfer. A worn or damaged belt may produce squealing noises, exhibit visible cracks or fraying, or lead to the failure of driven accessories.

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.
The first indication of a failing V-belt is often a high-pitched squealing noise, especially during startup or acceleration. If the belt continues to degrade, it may show visible signs of cracking or fraying, and driven accessories like the alternator or water pump may cease to function. A broken V-belt will cause immediate loss of power to all driven accessories, potentially leading to engine overheating and electrical system failure.
Always release tension on the old belt using the tensioner pulley before attempting to remove it. Ensure the new belt is correctly seated in all pulley grooves before applying tension.
When replacing the V-belt, inspect the condition and operation of the belt tensioner and all accessory pulleys for any signs of wear or damage.
