There are several different types of drive belts and engine hoses that are used to make your Subaru perform at optimal levels.

How the Engine Belts and Hoses of Your Subaru Work

Your timing belt and serpentine belt are the major two drive belts that power your car entirely. The timing chain runs the interval motions of your valves and pistons which draw the right ratio from fuel and oxygen for combustion through the spark plugs. For the serpentine belt which connects to your alternator, it helps keep your car battery charged and the engine cooled by powering the water pump.

Your belts become too brittle, usually around 80,000 miles or several years of use and parking outside. If you are experiencing strange squealing noises, low power, flickering lights, or engine misfires, your belts may be off or on the decline. It is wise to get to these matters sooner than later to avoid engine seizure.

There are oil and coolant hoses that transfer liquids around your engine. These thick rubber hoses can handle long periods of heat and friction. However, usually around 100,000 miles you could experience light leaking or loss of pressure.
