Tighten or replace the belts, I change mine every year along with the Anti Freeze Mix! No Problems So far, and it don't cost alot either!!!

How much to replace the v-belts? Should be done during the change of pump/anti freeze. Around £20 for all the belts!!
Also, is the antifreeze change necessary?? Absolutely, as the anti Freeze has an extra coolant in it along with a lubricant to protect the pump!!!
Just a little extra insurance.

In the morning I heard some cheeesy noise coming out from the v-belt? Anyone have the same problems? any ideas?
