Review on ๐Ÿ”— Gates K070763 Micro-V Serpentine Drive Belt: High-Performance Automotive Belt for Superior Engine Efficiency by Brian Thao

Revainrating 1 out of 5

WILL NOT FIT 2005 4 CYLINDER CAMRY - use larger belt

This is not enough. After a serious fight, I could hardly slide any further. When the tensioner is fully compressed, the belt will not wrap around the last pulley no matter what order I installed it. I managed to put it halfway on a pulley and then crank the motor so that it wraps around the entire circumference. It's there now, but the hydraulic tensioner is fully compressed, and all that tightness inevitably affects the bearings in all the other accessories: the water pump, steering pump, alternator and air conditioning. Let's see how long this lasts. NOT recommend for 4 cylinder camry.
