I have always had good luck with gates belts and they have always looked good when I replaced them too. 70-80k belts looking almost new.
I have had good luck with them for years.
Gates makes good belts.
Gates is fine. If you find the gates racing belt it's better. But they are super rare these days. Stay away from any Amazon or ebay crap.
Gates, I've installed dozens of them and never had a problem, easily outlast the timing belt.
I used a gates (rpm) belt , its expensive ($80?) but i feel like thats a part you dont want to go cheap with !
crack is already visible in the first picture.. Heard it's best replace every 60K KM.. Also, there's a belt made by contitech that design specifically for peugeot/citron to withstand oil, and like what others have mention. Use the right and good quality oil.
The common complaint of gates timing belts is that they're loud.
I used a Gates belt that the marks were off last fall.
I've had gates belts do that in 20k.
