Parts for your 2013 Toyota Hilux-Drive belt

2013 Toyota HiLux drive-belt — what it does and when to replace it

A drive-belt is absolutely used and relevant on the 2013 Toyota HiLux. Toyota’s service literature refers to it as the V‑ribbed (serpentine) belt and specifies inspection and replacement across the 2013 HiLux engine range (1KD‑FTV and 2KD‑FTV diesels, 2TR‑FE 2.7 petrol, and 1GR‑FE 4.0 V6). This is confirmed by Toyota repair manuals and the Australian/NZ service schedule, along with Toyota’s Electronic Parts Catalogue and aftermarket catalogues (Gates, Dayco), all of which list accessory belts and tensioners for this model.

On a 2013 HiLux, the drive-belt spins key accessories at the front of the engine: alternator (charging), air‑conditioning compressor, and power‑steering pump. On some engines it may also drive the water pump
