The Best GM Belts

There are almost as many different types of belts in a car as there are major automotive systems. They move the many parts of those systems. Just a few of the kinds you can find under your hood include a serpentine belt, AC compressor belt, fan belt, and timing belt (or timing chain).

Serpentine belts work with idler pulleys, belt tensioners, and other drive belts to move parts in systems like your power steering, alternator, and water pump, among others. Compressor and fan belts move parts in your car HVAC system, more specifically, in your air conditioner. Timing belts (or timing chains) turn crankshafts and camshafts, helping make sure engine valves and pistons pump in sync.

If your vehicle isn't running right, a belt may be the cause of your problems. Luckily, there are signs that's true that you can look for, including belt looseness, damaged belts, squealing, car battery and interior lighting issues, and engine misfires or overheats.

If you're seeing such symptoms, do an inspection. Replace any belts that are concerning. Otherwise, be sure to change them according to mileage and your maintenance schedule. You'll find the latter in your owner's manual.
