Serpentine Belt

Your vehicle’s serpentine belt plays a critical role in keeping essential systems running smoothly. At Twin Peaks Auto Repair in Longmont, CO, we provide professional serpentine belt inspections and replacements to help prevent breakdowns and keep your engine operating at peak performance.

What Does a Serpentine Belt Do?

The serpentine belt is a single, continuous belt that drives multiple engine components, including:

• Alternator

• Power steering pump

• Air conditioning compressor

• Water pump (on some vehicles)

If the serpentine belt fails, these systems can stop working—potentially leaving you stranded or causing engine overheating.

Signs You May Need Serpentine Belt Replacement

Watch for these common warning signs:

• Squealing or chirping noise from the engine

• Cracks, fraying, or glazing on the belt

• Power steering suddenly feels stiff

• Battery warning light on the dashboard

• Overheating engine

• Visible belt wear or looseness

If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s best to have your belt inspected right away.

How Often Should a Serpentine Belt Be Replaced?

Most manufacturers recommend replacing the serpentine belt every 60,000 to 100,000 miles, but this can vary depending on the vehicle and driving conditions. Our technicians will inspect your belt and recommend replacement only when necessary.
