Scottbaru Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 I ordered my stuff from 1stSubaruparts/Auburn Subaru. They specified the correct belt, part #809218400 (Gates 5PK877), the same I'm taking off. I received part #809218340 (Gates 5PK874), and they're not sure why. Apparently '340 is listed as superceding '400, and that's why I got '340. The Gates website shows I need an 880mm belt, the 877mm seems to fit well, but the 874mm is too short. Why would Subaru change the belt to something shorter? 1stSubaru is sending a longer belt, so they're making the effort and I appreciate that. I expect to be doing many more belt changes on this car, hopefully I won't have to go through this each time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy777 Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 Who knows...they may have just got things mixed up in the system. As long as they're making good on it, I wouldn't worry about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
