My Vr4 Broke V Belt : ( - 3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

mikesx4911 · 04-17-2008, 05:52 PM

I just purchased the v belt, does anyone have a site that shows you how to replace this? I was driven 2day and my car just died : (

mikesx4911 · 04-17-2008, 06:08 PM

Also should the car still be able 2 be started even without the v belt?

The car should not die from a broken v-belt as all the v-belts does is control the power steering pump.

Oh I c, hm. Well I was driving 2day and the car started actn all krazy as hell lol.

I just went WOOT and next thing I know power steering is gone and the car just dies. So I pull over 2 the side and look under the hood and look at everything and I noticed the belt was completely messed up, like torn 2 shreds. But I could not start the car just makes a rawrrrrr noise. So I ended up gettn it towd back home, what could this be of? Its weird that 2 things break at once : (

Sounds like you might have a timing belt problem man,,, check your timing marks, and your timing belt and see whats going on there

mikesx4911 · 04-17-2008, 06:24 PM

mikesx4911 · 04-17-2008, 06:36 PM

ive heard of v-belts shredding apart and taking out the t-belt. take your plastic covers off and see if any of it got in there,or if it knocked off your timing.

mikesx4911 · 04-17-2008, 06:55 PM

I feel stupid 4 askn this but anyone have a forum 4 inspecting cuz i have no idea how 2 get 2 the timing belt, I keep seeing remove the covers thats it.
