Default RE: rear drive belts
There supose to be like kryptonite from what ive seen/heard. I would be a little surprised to see more than some isolated issue. Back when the clatter/chatter issue was at its hieght before the IDS I/and others?posted a comment that maybe the belt with its new properties should be loosened to absorb some of the engine stress. In hindsite this idea was not far off.
