Common options & kits

For this category you will typically find Gates parts that support the drive systems on your Porsche, such as belt-driven accessories and related components.

Why do Porsche Gates parts matter?

Drive belts and associated components help transfer power from the crankshaft to key accessories on your Porsche, such as the alternator, power steering pump or other driven units. Over time, any belt system is exposed to heat, vibration and contamination, which can lead to glazing, cracking, noise or loss of tension. Gates develops its heavy-duty and automotive ranges to offer robust construction and consistent running characteristics, helping your Porsche’s driven systems operate smoothly over long service intervals when maintained correctly.

• Keep your Porsche feeling well maintained, with drive systems running quietly and consistently
