Adjust Drive Belts Service

What are drive belts all about?

The drive belts are connected to the crankshaft (a part of the engine), as well as to the alternator, air conditioning, and power steering system. The belts are responsible for transferring power from the crankshaft to these other systems. Over time, and especially if multiple systems that put stress on the belts are being used, the belts can grow loose, or unaligned. When this happens the belts will need to be adjusted so that they can return to their normal, optimal position.

Keep in mind:

  • If the drive belt is at all frayed or cracked it should be replaced instead of adjusted.
  • When the drive belt is adjusted, the drive belt tensioner and idler pulley should both be inspected.

How it's done:

  • Adjust the drive belts

Our recommendation:

Your drive belts should always be checked during tuneups and maintenance. During any kind of servicing your drive belts should be checked to see if they need to be replaced or adjusted.

What is a common symptom indicating you need to adjust the drive belts?

  • Squealing noise from the engine

How important is this service?

Your alternator, power steering, and air conditioning are all powered by your drive belt. The belt is connected to the crankshaft, and transfers power to these systems. As the belt is used and wears, it can grow lose, or begin to become unaligned. If the drive belt becomes loose, it won’t move as efficiently, and it won’t transfer power as efficiently. If the belt becomes unaligned, it can come into contact with parts of the engine, which can cause damage.

Best possible experience! My appointment was late so it was dark. It was not optimal weather and he was on time, great with Communication, provided a quick assessment and quote. We opted to do the repair during the initial visit and he completed it and upon completion gave us some good tidbits of information about our other cars. Just friendly chit chat that I am sure will be helpful in the future. I wish I could give more than 5 stars! Excellent!

Duane was great. To the point he gave me a quote on some things I need done, but told me to ask about having it covered under warranty. He was up front and honest about everything and when I found out the dealer won’t cover it and it would be double the price, I just instantly booked Duane again.
