Is the generator belt breakage of the Tiguan L covered under warranty?
1 Answers
Generator belts are considered wear-and-tear parts and typically have a shorter warranty period. The specific warranty terms vary by manufacturer, so it's advisable to check the user manual or consult the local 4S dealership. When installing the generator belt, be sure to follow these steps carefully: 1. Loosen the generator mounting bolts and the belt tension adjustment bolts. 2. Push the generator toward the engine to minimize the distance between the pulleys, then position the belt correctly. 3. Adjust the belt tension to the appropriate level and tighten the generator mounting bolts and adjustment bolts. 4. Additional information: According to general automotive maintenance standards, generator belts typically need replacement around 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers, with some lasting up to 80,000 to 100,000 kilometers before requiring replacement.
