GatesGates K070610 Micro-V Serpentine Drive Belt

great quality procuct, fits perfectly

Serpentine belt seemed to be made with good quality. This size worked well on my 2008 Toyota Highlander. There are videos online that explain how to change the belt. Took about 20 minutes to change. I included a picture comparing the belts. The belt on the left is the original serpentine belt with 135,000 miles on it. Probably could have got another 30,000 miles out of it, but why risk it. The belt on the right is the new one. For the price, it is well worth it.

Replaced along with idler pulley on a Toyota RAV4, and fixed the squeal/chirping when the engine is on idle (noise goes away at higher revs). Easy replacement. Same or better than OEM for sure. Gates make good stuff!

I noticed a Dayco belt with 30,000 miles on it developing a tear in the center of the belt. The 2011 Sienna, 6 cylinder required removal of the passenger side tire and plastic access panel to access the belt from underneath. A 14mm wrench was needed to turn the tensioner until a short 5mm hex wrench or bolt could be inserted to relieve the belt tension. Make some notes or take photos of your belt routing before removing your old belt--many belts can be misrouted. Feed the new belt from underneath--there isn't much room. Slightly turn the tensioner and remove the 5mm tool. Check that the belt ribs are all within the pulley edges. Bump the ignition a few times but don't start the car. Look at the belt routing again to confirm correct install. Shop book time for this job is 0.7hrs. If your car doesn't have a transverse mounted engine then your replacement will likely be much faster.

My ES 350 had 83k miles and I noticed a squeak that would come from belts after about 40 mins of driving the last few months. So the belt looked fine but decied to still change it out as it felt like the outside of the factory belt had some glazing on the outside...was sort of rough. The new belt got rid of squeak. Pretty easy installation about 20 mins or so.

Pretty good belt for now, fits the 2010 highlander V6. Always check with original/old belt first. Its a little thinner than original belt.

Works just as advertised. Would buy it again and suggest friends do the same.

Direct fit for 2011 Highlander V6 base 2WD model. Was replacing alternator (which requires removing radiator) and found the original was clogged beyond belief plus had a small leak discovered once removed. New upper, lower, and 2 transmission cooler hoses from Toyota (32943-48111 and 32943-48151). Decided to also replace serpentine belt and idler pulley while I had it off. Make sure you have the belt routing drawn out before taking it off. Given the tight fit (needing to turn it sideways to get between the pulley and inner fender, hoses, etc.), I enlisted my daughter with smaller hands to help reach thru wheel well to help route as I moved the idler pulley and got belt on from top.Everything should go for many more years.9/9/2023 - Perfect fit for our 2010 Lexus RX350
