Which serp belt?

I'm starting to get a little squeal when starting the car so I guess it's time for a new belt.

Manual tranny, A/C with simple knobs, electric power steering.

This one?

Just head to NAPA or Oreilley's and get a Gates belt. All American yaris 06-11 and possibly beyond run the same belt I think


Much cheaper to just run to the store than that link you posted. Avoid dayco though. I had one and had to tighten it every week because it would stretch so bad

Much more convenient to have the belt delivered to me, and also, I've got a bunch of Amazon credit. So I'll repeat my question...

I am using Dayco, but i did have to re-tighten it after a week though.

@OP, Buy it then.

Ordered, and a nice tool set, too.

That one was only $49 when I bought it, oddly enough.

important note

When you get your belt, be very aware of the oil control valve sensor.
It right where you want to pry to tension the belt. It is sort hard to avoid.

Just had my belt changed on Tuesday of this week. At 87K miles, it had a lot of cracks. Local shop installed a Gates belt. Cost $75 OTD.

Looks like the font size button is hard to avoid as well...
