Damaged engine drive belt

[Ron Burgundy]

Might grab one of these if they are available through spare parts.
I just bought new belt from holden and will put it on tonight. Should be pretty easy to replace by the looks of it

I had a harmonic balancer replaced on my series 2 redline, apparently common problem with LS3 according to my dealership.

The ******** gave me the wrong belt..
He gave me GM92252907 which is for V6.
LS3 belt is GM92252908...
Need to exchange it tomorrow...

Mine has done the same and was going to mention at next service.

How much did the part cost?

spare parts sale people these days have no idea , i can go into repco and ask for a rocker cover gasket for a holden straight 6 red motor , then only to be asked what year and model of car, what engine size ect ect
i know there only kids but years ago they were older guys with trade experience, and knew what was what
and would know straight away what you wanted and give you the right part and other stuff you might need and advice on the job
how things have changed

Noticed this tonight...
No idea what would cause this.
The car is only 2 yrs old.
Would holden cover this under warranty ?

What does your upper pulley look like? The top large one that is shinier? Curious. Is it even wear across the surface?

Wear is only on one part of the belt.
I collected the right one and will put it on.

Thanks. Wondering because i thought i'd look at mine, that pulley has gone silver shiny on the front edge where yours has gone brown so its not just mine...
