1993 Camry...

After only 60K miles on the aftermarket belt (Gates), I had to change it out as it was making alot of noise...It was also stretched out alot..

I bought only toyota parts for the new belt, pully, tensioners and the other seals.

Wouldn't ya know it?...not a noise from this belt, runs quite as it should and the performance is better.

it was my choice to use the aftermarket parts last time to save a few bucks. How much did I really save when I had to do it all over again after only 60K??

 

appreciate the lessons learned.

sometimes we don't hear well enough ...
