This was a Goodyear Gatorback belt (same) and worked fine in my 2008 Toyota Corolla. The original OEM belt started squeaking at 70,000 miles in the morning. When I took it off I saw no sign of any cracks or splits. I compared it to a new belt, both got about the same length. I didn't want to put it back on after struggling to take it off, so I put the new belt on and noticed that I actually had to pull on the auto-tensioner (more than was necessary to take the old belt off). ). So far the new belt is quiet and works well. I would buy another one in 70,000 km.
