Which is best place to buy belts in NZ? Not necessarily the cheapest, but reasonably priced? Either in Auckland for pick up, or elsewhere to have couriered. Belts I am after are 6PK1115 and 3PK855.
be awear you need correct ones for make as some run on its back of the belt and some dont. Ask me how i know. one of my belts a few years ago fitted and 2 month later was told at wof belt is worn . well it was running on its back also and the machine belt i got from saeco started to turn in to thin air as it had a cotton back instead of epdm or what ever its called when the smooth side is also used to operate. and then there is modern strechbelts but them 2 places have good brand names bosch .dayco or gates are good names

Thanks for the info. I have a Nissan Avenir, and like you say, the tensioner idler for the alternator belt actually runs on the smooth side of the belt. I last replaced the belt in 2008 when the car had done 89,000k, now 12 years later it's just starting to show a few small cracks at 227,000k. Not bad service for a belt. I found the original cardboard sleeve from the belt, and it's a Dayco.
I got a belt for my rav4 from rockauto.com. was in nz 7 days after ordering
