Rating 5.0

when I got my '06 sti 3 years ago I replaced the original belt with roughly the same mileage on it and it looked to be in fine condition despite being 13 years old.

Pros: fine condition, long lasting
Vehicle: Subaru Impreza WRX STi

I have personally been running this one for the past 3 years with no problems. As for the belt itself, I always run a conti tech (OES) belt and never have had a issue

Pros: no problems, reliable
Vehicle: Audi A4

Contitech Timing belt

I already flipped the belt around (now I have two fuzzy sides). I'll try de-tensioning it a little, and I guess if that doesn't work, a new belt and another new tensioner are in order. Might as well go with ContiTech this time around I spose.

Cons: two fuzzy sides

I changed with new belt but it is also a half tooth. It always lines up with cam cover arrow just at the line at the end of the tooth rather than middle of it at tdc.

Cons: half tooth off
