How Often Should the Alternator Belt Be Replaced?
1 Answers
According to general automotive maintenance standards, the alternator belt typically needs to be replaced around 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers, with some belts lasting up to 80,000 to 100,000 kilometers. As the replacement interval approaches, it's important to regularly inspect the belt's condition. Replacement is also necessary under the following circumstances: 1. If there are defects such as core breakage or groove section cracking, the belt should be replaced immediately. 2. When the belt's cover layer separates from the cord or the cord frays. 3. When the belt is placed on the pulley, there should be a gap between the belt's inner diameter and the pulley groove bottom. If there is no gap, replacement is required.
