Go to Autozone for both. If I remember correctly they were very cheap compare to the dealer. They are the gatorbacks from Goodyear in Autozone. Serp was about $40 and the A/C was around $20.00.

Looking at my receipt from the dealer part #12572188 Belt $59.94.

Dealer will rip you off like I found out.

Cheers!!!

Seems like what I just was told...

Stealer wanted 59.95 for EACH.....

AutoZone said 19.95 and 24.95.

Didn't seem right, but I guess it is.

Don't forget to add $9.95 shipping. That makes it $39.95.

When I enter that PN @ GMPartsDirect, it doesn't recognize it as valid. Could be an old # that has been changed.

Default when the belts squeel?

My belts squeel sometimes when cruising, for about 10 secs or so. Does this mean the belts are shot, or can it mean that the belts AND the tension pullies are shot?
Thanks,
Dale

Depends on the brand you buy but under $35 for the serpentine and under $17 for the A/C belt at any autoparts store for belts with lifetime warranties.

auto zone is the place for both goodyear belts... about 45-50. These belts are in demand and auto zone does not have a large inventory in my area. Had to order belts and took 4 days. Auto zone no longer makes you pay shipping, So go for it
