I have just been to my local motorfactors to buy an aux belt for my 98 3.0 Elite to be told that there are two sizes...what gives?

One is for air-con, other one is without aircon

98 Elite without aircon?  are you sure?

Personally I would get one from Vx - the last aftermarket one I bought caused the tensioner to squeal due to being a fraction too short.

It does not matter its an Elite or not, its irrelant saying "Elite" when ordering engine parts.

Its for the 3.0 Engine, which was fitted in plod cars, and some plod cars had no air-con.

There are 2 belts for all the Vx engines, air-con and non-airon.
