The Goodyear 1070565 (alternate part 7PK1435) is made from EPDM rubber and balanced twist polyester cord to resist heat, ozone, and weathering. It’s designed to meet or exceed original equipment standards and works across alternators, water pumps, AC compressors, and power steering systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow will this belt affect drivetrain noise and vibration?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Goodyear multi V design reduces vibration transfer and minimizes belt chirp compared with worn or generic belts.
