Frequently asked questions

What is the ERR5579D drive belt and what does it do?
The ERR5579D is the serpentine poly-vee accessory belt for the 4.0L V8 EFI petrol with air conditioning. Driven off the crankshaft pulley, it turns the alternator, the A/C compressor and the other engine accessories. Belt length is 2240mm.
Which models need the 2240mm A/C drive belt?

Why does the drive belt need replacing?
A serpentine belt typically wears by cracking, glazing or fraying of the ribs, and a squeal on start-up is a common warning sign. If it snaps you lose drive to the alternator and A/C compressor, so it's renewed as a service item. Consult your service schedule.
