How to know my exact motor

[PlenumBiscuit]

So it used to have an LLT but now it has an LFX

Putting the rego plates into repco...doesnt give me correct parts as it thinks its LLT

So i need a drive belt for LFX it seems there might be 2 or 3 part numbers for this... How am i gonna tell which parts suit my specific LFX? If makes sense

Find a VIN for the LFX

Repco selling LFX belts for $15 right now get in quick (repco brand down from $75)

I am almost positive just look for one for a VE as the VF which also run the LFX due to differences runs a different belt.
That is if you are searching for LFX serpentine belt you should change to VE LFX serpentine belt

Really? Hope not...my ve has had an lfx put in it but what because it may have different bolt ons it might be different length?

Omg this lfx is gonna piss me off

I showed the repco guy my vin number and rego papers he sold me a belt

 

[greenacc]

Just read the number on the old belt

 

[PlenumBiscuit]

So he sold me the vf lfx belt 6pk2085rb...

But im meant to have the ve lfx belt 6pk2125rb????

Fml! Lol

Has the new engine been reported to the rego department for it to show up on the rego papers?

If you have a VE then you need the VE belt as the VF belt is different because of the power steering.
LFX is a LFX in a VE or VF but the boltons are different just the same as if you put a LFW in place of a LF1 you need a belt for a VE not VF even though the VF also uses the LFW.
It's actually simple when you think about it but asking a Repco guy just lets all men down

And here is the kick in the teeth the LLT and LFX in the VE use the same belt and that took me all of 5 minutes to work out on the internet.
