Timing belts, Whos is better??

[Al S]

Thanks, Conti it is.
Question: My Bentley says that my V-belts, AC,PS,ALT/WP should be 9.5mm,
9.5mm and 12.5mm. But the replacement parts (Conti), listed for my eng. are
0.5mm larger, ie; 10,10 and 12 (0.5mm smaller). Is this going to cause a
problem?

Al,
No, it is not worth it.  This is easy ... get the Continental Conti-tech.  I
assume that it is made in Germany.
