squeaking serpentine belt
belt squeak 2000 camry after replacing new belt (bando) with new tensioner(koyo), tension roller(koyo). Squeak for 5 minutes. I put the old belt back and no more squeak. What is the problem with new belt?

1. This is technically a Lexus thread.
2. According to many on this forum, and other Toyota forums... The only belts that work properly ALL of the time, are the OEM belts from the dealer only. They really aren't expensive. Infact, they are cheaper at my dealer than autozone.
Good luck 🍀

Mitsuboshi, Bando and Dayco are OEM on these cars. Which you have/get seems to depend on location. New belts can squeak if there is old belt material fused to the pulleys.

Interesting! I knew for sure Mitsubishi was OEM. I was under the impression Bando and Dayco were cheap garbage alternatives, because of their prices on rockauto.com . Good to know.
