Yup, just changed mine the other day. The "correct" belt can be found here: http://www.autozone.com/autozone/par.../N-izuwlZapsy5

I went with a Duralast belt, Part Number: 763K6

Unless of course, the previous "mechanic" uses a belt that is 0.4" shorter(part No. 760K6) and thus, now I am forced to as well due to tensioner being stressed and me not wanting to drop $130+ when the engine just has to last a while longer.... Ah but such is life...

Not hating, but why do you guys remove the A/C? A/c is amazing, and I probably wouldn't last too long without it

Oh damn, disregard my answer...I thought OP was REPLACING A/C compressor.

The belt size I have listed is for OEM, WITH all accessories. I would never remove my A/C...especially here in sunny FL.

I love Driftmotion, hope that helps out anyways...

I used to work for Advance Auto, see if they will let you use a couple belts. Generally they're pretty cool about it. Thats if you're needing an immediate fix.
