Product Details
The Honda OEM Serpentine Belt is a genuine factory replacement designed specifically for the 2005-2006 Acura RSX Type-S equipped with the 2.0L K20Z1 DOHC i-VTEC engine.
This accessory drive belt transfers power from the engine's crankshaft pulley to essential accessories, including the alternator, power steering pump, and air conditioning compressor. A properly functioning serpentine belt is essential for reliable accessory operation and everyday driving performance.
Over time, the original belt can deteriorate due to engine heat, friction, and normal wear. Common signs of a worn serpentine belt include squealing or chirping noises, cracking, fraying, glazing, or excessive belt vibration.
Manufactured to Honda's original equipment specifications, this replacement belt provides factory-quality fitment, dependable durability, and smooth operation. Whether you're performing routine maintenance, replacing a worn belt, or restoring your RSX Type-S, this genuine Honda serpentine belt is an excellent choice.
