Hi,
today on my way home from work, I noticed a ticking noise under acceleration. When I pulled over and checked under the bonnet I found the serpentine belt had started to come apart. A couple of months ago, I bought a replacement belt from my local dealer, and gave it to my local garage to fit during some other work. However the belt came back, as they said it was too short. I took it back to MB but they said it was the only belt available for my car and the mechanic wasn't trying hard enough!!! So, today I tried it myself, and low and behold, it is too short by 2-3". Does anyone have the correct part number?
