No need for words... Just follow the link.. Understanding the crickets

EDIT: And for fucks sake.. if your belt is squeeking... that is NOT the fix. Tighten the damn thing.. jebus.

You DO NOT lubricate serpentine belts! Period, end of story. No belt dressing, no nothing on them.

From my google searching, it seems it's a bad idea... but it's your car and you can do whatever you want with it.
