Accessory belt replacement intervals?
I just looked at my accessory belt today, it looks terrible. Frayed, very discolored, doesn't look good.
I was driving and I heard a notable squeal, alternator light came on for a second, then it went right off. I know it's not power steering; ours is electric. Not sure if a bad alternator would cause the belt to slip, or if the belt was overtightened at some point and the hot weather caused it to stretch and now it's bad. How often is this belt supposed to be changed? |
