Product Details

The Gates 90K-38344A is a complete serpentine belt drive component kit for vehicles that use the K050551 belt and 38344 tensioner combination. It is intended for 2012-2015 Chevrolet Cruze, 2016 Chevrolet Cruze Limited, and 2016 Chevrolet Cruze NG with the old body style. Gates packages the belt drive service components together so the accessory drive system can be refreshed as a unit rather than replacing only the belt.

Accessory belt drive service is important because worn tensioners and pulleys can shorten belt life and affect other front-end accessory components. For Chevrolet Cruze owners searching for a serpentine belt tensioner kit, accessory drive belt kit, or Gates 90K-38344A replacement, this part provides the specified belt and tensioner match for the listed applications.

This part cross-references Gates 90K-38344A for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Squealing or chirping from the serpentine drive system
• Loss of belt tension from a worn tensioner
• Uneven belt wear caused by aging accessory drive components
• Noise from front-end accessory drive hardware
• Repeat repairs when the belt is replaced without servicing the tensioner

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the belt length, width, and tensioner part number against the vehicle before installation. The manufacturer includes installation instructions and tech tips to support accurate service. On Cruze applications, inspect the belt routing path, pulley surfaces, and accessory drive alignment before final assembly.

Compatible With: 2012-2015 Chevrolet Cruze, N/A; 2016 Chevrolet Cruze Limited, N/A; 2016 Chevrolet Cruze NG, N/A (old body style).

Quality Assurance

Gates markets this Accessory Belt Drive Kit as a complete service solution for restoring the serpentine drive system with OE-equivalent components. The kit is engineered to help technicians service the belt drive system correctly on the first repair.
