The accessory belt powers the alternator, water pump, and power steering units on the E36 3 Series. After years of working under the stresses of engine torque and resistance from the auxiliary units, these can snap without warning. Replacement as a part of preventative maintenance is recommended. This high quality belt is manufactured by Continental, original equipment supplier of belts to BMW.
