How to Replace BMW Serpentine & Accessory Belts // M54 Engine (2003-2006)

Today on JD Cars we’re swapping out both the serpentine belt and accessory drive belt on our 2005 BMW X3. Removing the intake ducting and radiator cooling fan makes for a lot more working room. Overall, a quick and easy project almost anyone can do at home in an afternoon or less! Thanks for watching! Stay motivated 🤟

Brother maybe u could help me get the correct fitment on my 2005 bmw x3 3.0 for both serpentine and vbelt. For continental. Giving me only 6k1538 and 4040340 4rib 34. And also I found the 4060405 6 rib 60.5 vbelt. Hope u can help me. Thanks

[@JDCarsChannel]

Sorry, I don't understand your question. I would recommend using the belts linked in the description.

[@MikeHensley-sc3ns]

T60 on main belt because the hex head is not correct.

[@dougiewilliams7513]

It is a t50 boss

[@JuanShaw-313]

You referenced the belts wrong the serpentine is the longer belt 😊

[@alanglennen1491]

You skipped the but u wanted by speeding it up. Thanks
