Please ensure your correct model is selected

Your BMW's drive belts are wear items, and will degrade and crack over time. Don't wait until you have a belt failure... don't get stranded! Replacing your BMW's belts, such as the alternator belt, power steering belt, air conditioning AC belt, or serpentine belt is a low cost insurance policy to preventing a break down -- or worse, engine damage. We recommend checking your belts every 10,000 miles. If your belts have excessive cracks, dry rot, missing teeth and/or grooves, are cause noise, it's time for new ones.

While also inspecting your serpentine belts, also check for wear or resistance in the pulleys. The tensioner pulley and deflection pulley are the primary sources for belt squealing. The rubber-isolated pulleys can also break apart, leading to total belt failure. We sell the tensioner and deflection pulleys for the M50 engine family used in the E34, E36, E39, E46, X5, Z3, and Z4.

Eliminate your squeaking accessory belt pulley and cracked drive belt with this upgraded accessory belt service kit! This kit includes ECS Kevlar Reinforced Drive Belts, tensioners, and pulleys required to install the new tensioner. ECS Tuning's Red Kevlar Accessory Belts are both an aesthetic improvement and a performance alternative to a traditional belt. Kevlar-reinforced belts experience less elongation over time minimizing the amount of belt adjustment needed as well as offering a higher shock and impact resistance compared to OEM-style belts. Refreshing the rollers and/or tensioners simultaneously is a great way to ensure all vital components of your drive belt system are functioning optimally for years to come!
