Product Details

Gates Premium OE Micro-V Belt line products are built to match original equipment dimensions and construction standards for consistent belt tracking and accessory drive operation. This K070508 serpentine belt uses EPDM material and a polyester cord layout to support stable performance in the accessory drive belt system. It is a direct-fit option for 1995-2000 Volkswagen Golf, 1994-1999 Volkswagen Jetta, 1993-1997 Volkswagen Passat, and 1992-1994 Volkswagen Corrado, with fitment limited to vehicles not equipped with AC. This part cross-references Bando 7PK1290 and Continental 7K1290 for the same application.

Common Uses

• Replacing a worn or glazed serpentine belt
• Correcting belt squeal from belt wear or loss of tension
• Restoring accessory drive operation on Volkswagen Golf, Jetta, Passat, or Corrado models without AC
• Addressing cracking, fraying, or rib wear on the drive belt
• Maintaining proper alternator and accessory drive performance

Installation Notes

Verify belt routing, rib count, and measured length before installation. Confirm the vehicle is equipped for the non-AC application listed in the fitment data. Inspect pulleys, tensioner condition, and accessory alignment before installing the new belt, since worn components can shorten belt life. Use the part number K070508 and the OE-style dimensions to confirm the correct replacement before service.
