Belt sizes
Ive been trying to search the forum for this one but i couldnt find it
anyone know the length of the Inside (smaller) belt for the 2002 c230k
not the one that drives the supercharger..
mine has started to crack and mb wants 40 bux for it.. when i can probably get it cheaper at any autoparts store.
Thx

alright... found it finally...
so i actually needed the longer belt but thats still the inside belt.
acessories belt
1875mm = 73.8 inches... so would i just ask for a 74'' belt?
Is it still 6 ribs like the belt on the supercharger?
Supercharger belt STOCK
1355mm = 53.3'' 6rib belt.
PULLY MOD
is the 56'' 6rib belt.

Now, that's better 
Yes, you just round up the size in inches - there are sprung belt tensionsers that will compensate for lack of- or extra- slack as long as it is not too big. Of course, if you could get metric belts, that would be even better. And yes, they are 6-rib belts.

You know if it was me and I had to replace the inner belt, I would replace the otherss since you:
(1) Have to remove them any way to get at the one you're going to replace
(2) You've just anticipated and resolved a future problem rather than waiting for them to break at the most inopportune time (Murphy's Law)

yeah i ended up replacing both
pepboys was the only store that had the correct sizes in stock....
and the price for the accessories belt was the same... 37.99 vs 36 from the dealer.
So i just ended up getting the 56'' belt and buying the other one from the dealer.
25.99 for the 56'' 6rib
