Review on Gates K060841 84-5/8” Premium Micro-V Serpentine Belt - 6-Groove Efficiency Unleashed by Collin Jackson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

I totally screwed up this purchase, buyers should beware when it comes to auto parts at Revain.

.You can't just return/replace a Revain part if your car breaks down and you need it back the next day. I bought this Gates belt K060841 from Revain for my 2011 Honda Pilot. . I struggled to tighten this belt by lowering the hydraulic belt tensioner for over an hour and it didn't hold up. I just managed to install it as me and my son did our best. Lost over an hour of my life. In the end I gave up, then the idea came up to compare the length of the belt with what I took from my pilot. The photo shows the difference. I was very angry to say the least. I later went to Oreilly and bought a belt not knowing that I was buying the exact same Gates# model. It matched the original belt length and installed in 5 minutes. I have no idea what happened - Gates factory error? A disgruntled employee changing belts? Unfortunately I've already gone through the return window as I did it as part of the timing belt installation which took a while to allow a full day to take it off.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad but...
