FEBI177980 Febi Auxiliary Belt Kit

This kit basically covers everything you need to replace what people often call the serpentine belt, or accessory drive belt. It includes the belt itself, and usually tensioners and pulleys too. The tensioner keeps the right amount of pressure on the belt, and the pulleys are what the belt wraps around to drive different components. Sometimes the kit even includes a water pump, depending on the vehicle. This belt is a pretty busy guy. It’s responsible for powering a bunch of things that aren't directly involved with making the wheels turn. Think power steering pump – makes steering easier, obviously. Alternator – keeps your battery charged and runs all your electrical stuff. Air conditioning compressor – keeps you cool. Water pump – circulates coolant to prevent the engine from overheating. It connects the engine's crankshaft to all of those accessories. If this belt fails, you’ll notice pretty quickly. Usually it’ll start with a squealing sound, especially when you first start the car or when you turn the steering wheel. That squeal is the belt slipping. If it breaks completely, you'll lose power steering, the alternator will stop charging, and the engine can overheat fast. That can leave you stranded and cause some serious damage. Replacing the whole kit at once, rather than just the belt, is a good idea because the tensioner and pulleys wear out around the same time, and it saves you from having to do the job again soon after. You can often find a good kit like this at places like Fixparts Online, and they usually have options for different makes and models. It's a relatively inexpensive repair compared to the damage a broken belt can cause, so it’s definitely something to stay on top of. Shop with confidence: Auxiliary Belt Kit (MPN 177980) comes with a 3 year manufacturer guarantee!
