Hello,

the belt is shredding because it is not seating correctly. This can be a problem from the pulley... If the pulley is not correctly positioned, it will wobble and the belt will begin to touch other parts and it begins to shred.

Have the pulley adjusted and well seated. Make sure the pulley is well screwed or bolted in the correct manner.

Check the pulley as mentioned above because that is where the problem lies....

Regards.

S40 won't start after alternator belt shredded

I would look for some wiring damage. The belt could have damaged wires that run to the crank sensor or other vital component.

Why did new drive belt fail

A car with belt drive? Whatever the case the belt shredded because what ever was driving it kept turning and what it was trying to turn was locked up. Ergo, heat and friction = shredded belt.

No if your belt is shredding there is something rubbing on the belt. Check the idler/tightner pulley see if it spins freely. Check make sure nothing but the pulleys are touching the belt when it is engaged.

I have a 1999 Mercury Sable. The only problem I have had with the car is the serpentine belt. It started 3 months ago . . . the engine was overheating and the belt was shredding. I bought a belt tensioner...

take the belt off and carefully check to see if any of the pulleys are out of line and check to make sure they spin smooth and true check for bearing wear and noise in any of the pulleys cause it sounds like simply there is a pulley out of line

is the a/c working ok??? shredding the belt may be cause by the a/c compressor problems. the "chunk" maybe not, but shredding tells me something does not spin when it should. I dont know why the mehanic put a new pump on that had a problem with the pulley, it should be smooth. anyhting that the belt runs should be smooth and east to turn, make sure that all of the grooves are clean, no remnants of the old belt.

Your Power steering pump may be loose. This may be reason for the belt shredding and will make the new belt shred too pretty soon.
