How long does it take to replace a drive belt?
I’ve been working on my own car for several years now. I’m pretty competent but I’m also pretty busy. It needs a new drive belt. How long does it take to replace a drive belt?

How long it takes to replace a drive belt depends on your skill, but the average time is about one hour. A very skilled technician could perform a drive belt replacement in less than 30 minutes.
Either way, this service is not a half-day or full-day task. If you can carve out a little time after work or on a weekend, you can get this replacement done in the blink of an eye! You can always hire a
mobile mechanic
if you’re seriously crunched for time. Make sure you ask about this specific service, as not all mobile mechanics are capable of belt replacements.While you’re being a responsible car owner, now might be a good time to make sure you’re happy with your
car insurance
coverage. From roadside assistance to updating your contact information, you can use the Jerry
app to make sure you’re getting the best possible deal on car insurance.View full answer
