Drive Belt Inspection

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

NOTE:

Drive belt deflection/tension inspection is not necessary because of the use of the front drive belt auto tensioner.

Verify that the drive belt auto tensioner indicator mark does not exceed the limit.
- If it exceeds the limit, replace the drive belt. (See DRIVE BELT REPLACEMENT ).
