Drive belt service is critical to keeping your BMW on the road. We've taken the liberty of compiling complete drive belt service kits for your vehicle to make your shopping experience as painless as possible. All components we use in these kits are either Genuine BMW or quality OE aftermarket brands that we trust to keep our own BMWs on the road.
Continental is the OEM supplier for the stock serpentine accessory belt on your M52TU or M54 engine. They are also the OEM for many other components on your entire car. This extensive kit covers many of the common wear items that should be changed any time the serpentine belt is being replaced. As these cars gain years and mileage the belt tensioners will also need to be replaced along with the actual belts. It won't do any good to replace the belt if the tensioners are worn. This kit will save you time and money over buying these pieces individually and you get OEM-quality over any 3rd party aftermarket brands.
