How Long Can Car Belts Generally Last?

[BenjaminAnn]

Car belts are consumable items that require regular replacement. It is generally recommended to replace them every 3-5 years or after driving approximately 80,000-100,000 kilometers. The replacement interval for new car belts can be appropriately extended. The functions of car belts are as follows: Belt Functions: The role of the water pump belt is to serve as the drive belt that enables the engine to power the water pump. While this statement is correct, it is not entirely complete. The "water pump belt" component connects the engine crankshaft to the water pump, generator, power steering pump, and air conditioning compressor. Components Connected by Belts: These numerous components are not connected by just one belt. Typically, multiple belts are used to connect certain mechanical devices within the system. For example, one belt may be responsible for connecting the "crankshaft-water pump-generator," while another belt connects the "water pump-power steering pump." There may even be a separate belt for driving the air conditioning compressor.
