Drive Belt: Description and Operation

Accessory Drive Belt Service:

The serpentine drive belt drives all engine mounted accessories. All driven accessories are rigidly mounted to the engine. Drive belt tension is maintained by a spring loaded belt tensioner.

A belt squeak when the engine is started or stopped is normal and has no effect on belt durability.

In order to observe the belt tension indicator, it may be necessary to turn the power steering pulley so you can look through the holes.
