Product Details

Gates Decoupler Pulley line components are engineered for accessory belt drives that experience rapid speed changes. This pulley helps reduce torsional vibration from the alternator, which can improve belt tracking and reduce stress on related components. The Gates 37015P is a steel, 6-groove alternator decoupler pulley with a 55 mm outside diameter, 12.5 mm bore diameter, and approximately 39 mm width.

This part cross-references Dayco 892003 for the same application. It is a direct replacement for select Toyota Corolla, Toyota Matrix, Scion xD, and Pontiac Vibe applications, including 2009-2013 Toyota Corolla, 2009-2013 Toyota Matrix, 2008-2014 Scion xD, and 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe. It also serves select Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Caravan, Dodge Grand Caravan, Chrysler Pacifica, Chrysler Voyager, Toyota Celica, and earlier Toyota Corolla and Matrix models with the listed decoupler pulley setup.

Common Problems This Part Addresses

• Alternator pulley overrun noise during deceleration
• Accessory belt vibration and flutter
• Premature belt wear from torsional shock
• Stress on belt tensioner and related drive components
• Rougher engine feel caused by accessory drive oscillation

Installation Notes

Use the required tool part number 91024-3 for installation and removal. Verify the alternator pulley style before ordering, since overrunning alternator decoupler pulleys and one-way clutches are not interchangeable. Confirm groove count, bore diameter, and OE comparison details against the original part before service.
