belt self destruction at 37k miles / 60k km Posted by TML [Email] (#2212) [Profile/Gallery] (more from TML) on Sat, 4 Jul 2009 15:14:40 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I had posted earlier whether I should replace the belt sooner than the 65/100 interval in the manual. Well, I was still in the process of deciding when the decision was taken out of my hands. The belt split down the centre, and though it's still sort of working, I started to lose oil pressure and have stalling issues. I pulled over after a few more minutes and had it towed. From now on I will definitely be on the 30/50 schedule for the belt, 60/100 for the pulleys.
