actually, it is a drive belt which links the crankshaft pulley, water pump, alternator and air conditioner compressor

the radiator fan is electric-driven
Be safe. Go with the flo.

Hi, i will be due for servicing at autosaver.
my problem is my car have a squeaking sound every morning i start the engine.
but after 15 mins or when engine warm up, the sound is gone.

anyone encounter this problem??
suspect the belt but which belt will likely to give this problem?
thanks

Last time when I had this problem, I went back to TCM and the workshop spent half a day to troubleshoot and adjust for me (FOC). 

Just ask Autosaver to rectify it for you, since you are going there for servicing.

during 40k servicing.

got this sound long ago... since 20k i think or after i changed LWP. dun bother it as i know is the belt issue till 40 k than replace a new 1.

belt starts to cracks & torn under high temp, it get harden too

I changed my fan belt at Riverview for $36. Labour charge was $15. Seems pretty reasonable comparing to autosavers.

Call up riverview today, they quoted me $70 with original part from Japan with labor. Your part is original as well?

I called up RV asking about original left side skirting, they not sure what part is that, ask me to drive in and they will help to check outside.
Anyone got any other workshop that can replace original parts from Japan? thanks
