Belts and Hoses

There are several different types of belts and hoses located beneath your vehicle's hood. Both work to supply power and reliability to the innerworkings of your engine.

How the Belts and Hoses of Your MINI work

There are two types of belts for your car's engine. A timing belt, and the serpentine belt. Aside from the timing belt's job of keeping your engine's valves and pistons in time with one another, the serpentine belt connects to a system of engine pullies connected to your alternator. Made of heat-resistant rubber similar to the timing belt, the serpentine belt is designed to last up to 80,000 miles or more, depending on your driving environment.

Signs of a Bad Serpentine Belt or Engine Hose

There will be certain signs of a failing serpentine belt. Since it is connected to your alternator, you may hear high-pitched squealing when starting the car. One may also see dimming of interior or visually see damages on the belt itself. Look for any tearing, fraying, or splitting at the belt's edges. If you notice any surface damage, seek replacement fast. This goes for the hoses too. Hoses are used to transfer fluids to vital engine pieces that cool your vehicle.
