Time to tighten your belt?

Belts and hoses seem like relatively minor items in the car when compared to the engine or transmission, but they play a crucial role in the correct operation of many components of the vehicle

Services for belts and hoses at Petrie Mechanical Repairs include:

  • Coolant hose replacement
  • Air intake hose replacement
  • Transmission cooler hoses replacement

  • Serpentine belt replacement
  • Timing belt replacement (this will be done as a kit only)
  • Clamp replacement

When you are experiencing issues with the belts and hoses on your vehicle it can be tough to pinpoint just where the issue is. To make it a simpler process and to help foster communication between our clients and our technicians we have come up with a list of common symptoms and causes to help you identify the issue.

  • Overheating
  • Squealing from the engine
  • Pooling of fluids under your vehicle

There are many things that can cause the failure of belts and hoses. Some of the common ones are listed below;

  • Normal Wear and Tear
  • Cracks in the hoses
  • Broken teeth in belts
  • Too much slack on the belts
  • Incorrect alignment of the serpentine belts on the pulley

Without these crucial parts the engine would overheat, the transmission would grind to a halt and the car would simply not run. When you are in need of belt or hose repair, service or maintenance, contact the top car service team - Petrie Mechanical Repairs for;
