How disappointing. It went from CRP to CRAP. And to think that I just returned an air compressor belt that was made in the USA to confirm size, to Autozone because I wanted a German-made OEM Contitech over Duralast.

CHI-NA!


These are some alternator belts I bought 4 years ago, at which time they were still made in Germany.
Hey, but at least they're still "ENGINEERED IN GERMANY"!

Happy Motoring, Mark
