Power steering belt squeal

Post by bajaguy »

This last winter I developed the power steering belt squeal. It made me cringe and made it difficult to turn when the engine was cold. I went to tighten it and if I did, the belt would rub on the tensioner. I recently picked up the next size smaller belt and it does fit! This was joyous news for me. I will post an update if it gets cold again and I have the opportunity to try it then. The number for the shorter belt is 5K345.

P.S. I have a N/A
