Your Audi's generator, fans, water pumps and AC compressors all rely on accessory drive belts to do their job. Over time, cracking, glazing, and squeaking occur; for these reasons, replacing your drive belts before they crack or break is a highly prudent investment. Additionally, If the accessory belt snaps constantly, or is sloppy and loose in your vehicle, the only solution is a new tensioner. The ECS-assembled kit comes with everything you need to refresh your whole drive belt system, including belts, tensioner, and hardware.

ECS now offers two excellent ways to replace worn, faded, or cracked headlights with European Headlight Sets from TYC and AL. The cost of replacing B7 headlights can deter any owner from even attempting to address serious issues with their factory units.

The first operation a car's computer does when you turn the key is determine the position of the crankshaft. Ignition cannot take place without an understanding of where the valvetrain and pistons are at in their cycle - information the crankshaft provides.

ECS offers several options to solve this highly disruptive but simple problem.
