Goodyear Serpentine Belt 6-Rib 84.2" (1060842) — EPDM, Balanced-Polyester Cord for Acura & Ford Fitments

The Goodyear Belts 1060842 is a 6-rib, 84.2-inch (2139 mm) Multi V serpentine belt built with EPDM rubber and balanced-twist polyester cord for extended durability and quiet operation.

This Goodyear serpentine belt is engineered as a direct-fit replacement for many late-model Acura vehicles and select Ford chassis, offering the material upgrades found in OE-level belts. With EPDM compound and a reinforced cord design, it restores reliable power transmission to accessories like the alternator, A/C compressor, power steering pump and water pump while resisting heat, ozone and abrasion.

What vehicles and applications does this belt fit?

This specific Goodyear 6-rib belt matches factory routing and belt drive layouts for a range of passenger and commercial vehicles. Always verify fitment against your engine’s belt length and rib count before ordering.

• Common passenger fits: many Acura MDX, RL, TL and ZDX model years listed by OEM fitment.
• Commercial fits: select Ford F-53 and F-59 chassis model years noted for motorhome and stripped chassis use.
• Alternate part number: 6PK2139 and internal Goodyear number 1060842 for cross-reference.

How does the belt’s construction affect performance?

Goodyear uses EPDM rubber and a balanced-twist polyester cord to improve longevity and smoothness. That combination reduces stretch and squeal while resisting environmental damage that shortens belt life.

• EPDM compound improves resistance to heat, ozone and wear versus older rubber formulations.
• Balanced-twist polyester cord maintains belt tension and minimizes elongation.
• Six ribs provide secure contact with pulleys for consistent accessory drive.

Will installing this belt change noise, vibration or accessory operation?

Replacing a worn belt with this Goodyear Multi V belt typically reduces squeal and vibration because it restores correct tension and traction. Proper installation and routing are essential to avoid noise and premature wear.

• Reduced vibration from improved belt stiffness and balanced cord design.
• Quieter operation thanks to precise rib profile and EPDM compound damping.
• Stable accessory operation when tension and alignment are correct.

What technical specs should I verify before buying?

Confirm rib count, overall length and cross-reference part numbers to ensure compatibility with your vehicle’s belt routing and accessory layout. Dimension accuracy prevents fitment issues and potential accessory damage.

• Rib count: 6 ribs for proper pulley engagement.
• Length: 84.2 inches (2139 mm) – matches 6PK2139 designation.
• Part number: Goodyear 1060842; cross-check with OEM references for your model year.

Who is this for: Owners, mechanics and fleet managers who need a reliable, OE-quality replacement serpentine belt for compatible Acura models and specified Ford chassis. Choose this Goodyear belt if you want a long-life, heat- and ozone-resistant drive belt that restores proper accessory function and reduces drive-system noise when installed with correct tension and alignment.
