Belts & Hoses
Inspect the flexible parts that keep accessories and fluids moving.
Service overview
WHAT TO KNOW
Belts drive engine accessories, while hoses carry coolant and other fluids. Heat, age and vibration can cause rubber parts to wear, split or leak. Checking belts, hoses, clamps and tensioners together helps reveal the cause of a problem instead of replacing a single visible part.
When to have it checked
- Squealing from the engine bay
- Cracked, frayed or glazed belts
- Wet, swollen or split hoses
Planning your service
Include inspection with routine maintenance. Timing belts have a separate manufacturer replacement schedule.
