Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Reliable and High-Quality Continental OE Technology 6-Rib Multi-V Belt - Model 4060740 (74.0") by Satish Tegan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The screaming has stopped!

I have a 2006 Toyota Corolla CE with over 100,000 miles and since it was a year old it has been creaking on first start in cold and/or wet weather. I had read TSB about a possible tensioner failure but decided to just replace the belt first. After receiving this belt and removing the old tensioner, checking the tensioner showed no oil leaks around the hydraulic boot above the spring and what appeared to be adequate tension. I've felt a little lateral play in the idler pulley, but that can be normal. This strap was easy to tighten and the squeak was COMPLETELY gone. I've been driving the car for a few days now and there is no trace of squeaks at all. Inspection of the old belt showed some minor glazing and significant cracks in the ribs, but that was to be expected at almost 110,000 miles. Try this belt. He completely fixed it for me and it took less than 30 minutes to swap it out.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Doubtful
