Hello all...i will be shopping around this weekend for a new belt for my 1999 9-3 t5 auto 185 AC 100k+ and i would like to hear from you on your experience with different brands.
I have NAPA, AutoZone, Advanced AutoParts in my area. They all stock NAPA, Goodyear, Dayco.
The idle pulley is still oem but will be replacing it with tensioner pulley also. I am also thinking...would you recommend any specific lubricant for pulleys bearings. I have silicone, white lithium, graphite, grease with anti rust and heavy Mobile 1.
1. What belt brand would you recommend? I am thinking about Goodyear Gatorback...
2. What would be the best length for the new belt? Factory belt part no 4961066 is 6PK2345..so i am guessing that is 2345mm...
3. Best lube for pulleys?
4. Is it ok to use lubricant/spray grease around AC clutch/pulley to condition it a little?
