That really, really scares me as a mechanic. You mean to tell me that Advance Auto parts is charging me $50 a pop for each of their low quality, shredding-prone belts? That is really scary stuff. To think that I was using Advance Auto Parts brand timing belts in my customers' cars. I will never buy T-belts from them again. EVER. (slaps self in face)
Something about having a change-out interval of 60k and designing a cheap belt that breaks after only 20k, but not specifying this when purchasing seems extremely dishonest at best. I don't really understand this. So there are belt manufacturers out there making timing belts that break before the service interval is due? Shady. Very, very shady.
