Default Serpentine Belt Length 3.0 V6

Hi there,

I needed to replace the Serpentine Belt on my 2016 XJ L with the 3.0 V6 engine, although I believe both engines have the same Serpentine Belt.

I ordered a generic replacement which almost all the databases show is a 6K935 (2375), 93.5" long or 2375mm. It does not fit, in fact I can barely get it over most of the pulleys with the tensioner at full slack, let alone all!

Looking up the Jaguar part, it appears to be part number C2D61182, superseded by T2R10142 which is a Continental 6K2460. 2460mm is 96.85". So it seems like the parts databases may be off.

I've ordered a Bando 6K2460 to see if that fits and will report back.

Has anyone else had a challenge like this?

M

I have a 2016 3.0L as well, 6PK2460 is correct. I replaced mine a year and a half ago without incident; I cannot remember how I determined that was the correct size.

Thanks @JoshMcMadMac , confirmed the same experience here. I just tried the
Bando 6PK2460 Bando 6PK2460
and it was an easy replacement.

Be aware that the common replacement parts databases all seem to recommend the incorrect size. When purchased the correct belt on Amazon, it warned me that it would not fit. Looks like Amazon, Autozone, Advance and Napa are all saying the same thing. FCP Euro do not list one, I wonder if that is why?

I had to search the part number separately to get it from FCP Euro:

This is very helpful - thank you. What other belts should one consider replacing when doing that belt?

I have researched these two belts are the two belts normally replaced (Serpentine and Auxiliary): - am I correct?

https://parts.harperjaguar.com/oem-p...-belt-c2d61182
https://parts.harperjaguar.com/oem-p...-belt-c2d39175

What other belts and parts would be prudent to get before taking it all apart to install these two belts? (I am at 60,000 miles now). 3.0 litre S/C....

Thanks !

Just a quick follow up question: -- does anyone know what are the two tensioners (or anything else) I should consider replacing with these two belts?

Thank you !
