Product Information

Accessory Drive Belt Kit

An accessory drive belt, also referred to as a serpentine belt, functions by transferring power from the engine crankshaft to various accessories like the alternator, water pump, power steering pump, and air conditioning compressor. Essentially driving these rotating assembles through a series of pulleys with the belt's rotation. It is important to check the belt for cracks, fraying, or excessive wear during routine maintenance, keeping in mind most manufacturers recommend replacing the accessory drive belt at specified mileage intervals, typically between 50,000 and 100,000 miles. Proper tensioning of the belt is also crucial, so while servicing or inspecting an accessory drive belt, it is important to also inspect the belt tensioner and supporting idler pulleys.

Accessory Drive Belt Kit Failure Symptoms
  • Wear and tear: Over time, the belt can become cracked, frayed, or glazed, causing it to slip on the pulleys.
  • Misalignment: If pulleys are not properly aligned, the belt can rub against them unevenly, causing wear and noise.
  • Tension issues: Incorrect belt tension can lead to slipping or excessive strain on the belt and its components.
  • Contamination: Engine oil, coolant, or debris can degrade the belt material
  • Excessive Noise: Squealing noise, especially when starting the engine

BMW Serpentine Belt Kit - N54 engine
Did not give this kit 5 stars because I feel this kit should also include a BMW drive belt tensioner bolt that fits the Vaico brand belt tensioner. Used this kit to replace the drive belt pulleys, serpentine belt and belt tensioner on my N54 engine. When I was replacing original BMW belt tensioner using the Vaico brand supplied with the kit, I noticed the original BMW drive belt tensioner bolt was too big to fit threw the Vaico branded belt tensioner. Not sure if Vaico makes a certain belt tensioner bolt for their version of the drive belt tensioner. If so I think the kit should also include a drive belt tensioner torx bolt that can be used with the Vaico brand belt tensioner. I was able to correct this problem buy removing the pulleys from both old and new belt tensioners and exchanging them. This did work for me, but I would be willing to pay an extra ten dollars if the correct fitting belt tensioner bolt was included with the kit. All of the other parts supplied with the kit bolted on to the engine without any problems and so far is working correctly.
