With Optimum Micro-V Kit coverage

As with the timing belt drive, putting a new belt on worn metal parts is never a good idea. The best long-term solution is to replace all wear parts simultaneously using an all-in-one kit. With the most extensive ABDS Kit range in the market, you can guarantee a fully reliable system replacement for an impressive 92.3% of the European car parc.

WHY PROMOTE THE USE OF ALL-IN-ONE KITS

The accessory belt drive system is not only becoming more complex (more components have been added to the system) but the system as a whole is playing a much more critical role when it comes to driver comfort and safety. In the worst case scenario, the consequences of ABDS failure could be catastrophic, in the case of sudden loss of power steering for instance. Help your customer to increase driver safety by promoting a high grade multi-ribbed belt kit instead of just selling the belt. With no need to search for parts and order separately, there are fewer decisions to make, plus there are proven reduced comebacks.

Micro-V® Kits offer guaranteed OE quality parts from a trusted supplier and also include the matching Torsional Vibration Damper (TVD) and/or Overrunning Alternator Pulley (OAP) if required by the relevant vehicle type. We also offer kits that include the water pump, preventing the need for a second repair when the water pump fails after a new belt and tensioner was just installed.

Whichever vehicle a garage gets in the workshop, a complete Micro-V® Kit from Gates is the safest and most convenient option.
