    Default A few e34 questions:

    A few questions: How often do belts need to be replaced? Looking through the service records, I saw that the PO replaced the belts in July of 04. Back in February I was cleaning the ngine bay and must have got some water on them because they are starting to squeek when the car is turned on from overnight. They are all tight and don't have any visible cracks on them, should I worry about it??

    Also, for fan clutches and thermostats, should I go OEM, or are aftermarket ones alright (such Behr, ACM, and Wahler?)

    Thanks for your help, Andrew
