Review on ๐Ÿš— Gates 38386 DriveAlign: Enhancing Car Performance with an Automatic Belt Drive Tensioner by Darryl Blumenthal

Revainrating 1 out of 5

There was a problem with this part. - Buy the Motorcraft module.

Overall Gates products are top notch, especially their belts and hoses. However, this device failed (started clicking/squeaking) in less than 1000 miles. It wasn't the belt, it was the block itself. A qualified mechanic informed me that this is a common problem with replacement parts for this application. Do yourself a favor and spend a few more dollars on an OEM Motorcraft unit. This can save you headaches in the future.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
