6PK2440 Belt fits great! Posted by MI-Roger [Email] ![]() ![]() |
2008 9-5 Aero with 120K miles. At 60K I replaced the factory belt (2425 length) with a 2415 length as all the parts catalogs indicated. The 2425 was tight coming off and the 2415 was insanely tight going on.
With today's 120K miles Major Maintenance I replaced the old 2415 with a slightly longer than factory 2440 length. With tensioner fully retracted and locking pin in place there is enough belt length to slide it over all the pulleys without fighting. Remove the pin and the tensioner snugs it all up without using too much of its travel.
Provided the Gatorback belt doesn't stretch in use during the next 60K miles, my 180K miles replacement will also be this unauthorized longer length.
