Hi, can you specify any aftermarket serpentine belts for stock SLK32? OEM is A1129970092 and a bit pricy in Poland. I'm concerned I cant find an equivalent in local stores. It should be 2908mm and 8 row...
What you used in your cars? Only MB original close to 100 EUR?
thanks
I second the Gates recommendation. Have used them for a LONG time and they seem to last longer than most others.
I had the "Speer tuning" larger pulley upgrade for increased horsepower about 2 years ago. Obviously, it requires a smaller belt, the belt that was installed by Speer was cracking, I think it was some French brand, cannot remember. The Gates main drive belt...i.e water pump, power steering pump, A/C compressor, that I installed about 5 years ago still looks like new.
