The belt’s low modulus and high elongation construction helps it seat on fixed drive systems, and the OEM-oriented EPDM compound is paired with a polyamide tensile cord for consistent belt structure. Part number 4040329S is used in Subaru air conditioning applications, including WRX STI, Forester, Impreza, and WRX fitments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatible With Subaru WRX STI, Subaru Forester, Subaru Impreza, and Subaru WRX air conditioning drive applications. If you are replacing a worn Subaru serpentine belt in these configurations, 4040329S matches the specified stretch-belt setup. This part cross-references Subaru 11718AA082 and 23979AA000 for the same application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat It Solves\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCracked or glazed accessory drive belt surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNoise from a worn stretch belt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoss of belt grip in air conditioning drive service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncorrect fitment on fixed-drive stretch-belt applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse only on the listed stretch-belt applications.
