When did Toyota Camry stop using serpentine belt?
For this reason, the 2.5L I4 introduced in 2010 included electric power steering (EPS), thus eliminating a belt connection to a vane pump (the hybrid version of the 2.4L engine always used EPS). Because the space is so tight, replacing the serpentine belt in a Toyota Camry is a difficult chore.
How long does a serpentine drive belt last?
Serpentine drive belts are made of a durable rubber-like material, but still wear out over time. These drive belts typically will last from between 45,000 to 75,00 miles, or three to five years of driving. As the belt wears, it may emit squeaking or chipping noises, and a badly-worn drive belt can break.

Why is the tensioner on my Honda Odyssey bleeding?
The tensioner “bleeding” is new to me. The car lot from which I bought the Ody had the timing belt and water pump replaced just before I got it and assuming that the tensioner is removed as part of that process, his shop may not have known to “bleed” the tensioner three times before re-installing the belt- I wouldn’t have thought of that myself.
Why did my SERP belt tensioner bolt snap?
VCM has nothing to do with serp belt tensioner bolt breakage. It is all about correct bleeding procedure and tightening bolt up to the specs BEFORE installing serpentine belt. If you didn’t apply correct bleeding and tightening, your bolt will snap again soon.
