Dayco, continental should be fine, as long as it’s not China Amazon stuff. Gates it usually good but as with anything these days quality control is a crap shoot.
Pros: Dayco, Continental should be fine
Cons: quality control is crap
Dayco is an OE manufacture for many manufacturers, it's a pretty solid belt. Quick answer is yes you should get it changed ASAP, I've seen a lot worse belts than this one and they drove to the dealership just fine.
Pros: pretty solid belt
I bought my timing belt/water pump off amazon. It’s a Dayco product (part number WP215K1B) and so far I’m happy with it. Obviously I won’t know if it’s some trash until a little further down the road, but I’m 20k miles into it and so far no trouble.
Pros: happy with it, no trouble
Cons: durability unknown
Mileage: 20000 km
Part number: WP215K1B
Dayco isn’t original meaning someone’s changed it before. Cracks mean way too long ago. Don’t chance it
Cons: cracks mean way too long
Dayco: None of them fit. I sent all 3 back to RockAuto.
Cons: does not fit
Vehicle:
Nissan
I had a Dayco belt kit done on mine and after a year the belt started rubbing against the timing cover causing an RPM whine. Ended up switching to OEM from another shop and that's since resolved my issues.
Cons: belt rubbing, RPM whine
Vehicle:
Subaru Impreza WRX
I always by a Dayco or Gates kit. None of this Amazon made in China garbage.
Cons: cheap, Amazon made in China
