I'm looking at changing the serpentine belt, idler and tensioner on my 35i for preventative maintenance.
The belt on the Z4 is listed as "7PK 1470" but I can't find a 1470 Contitech belt, only Meyle or Bando.
Is it just the case that the 1470 part is only available as a BMW branded Contitech part? The closest Contitech part i can find is the 1473 which is 3mm longer, this doesn't sound like much but I'd rather not have a shredded belt due to slipping.
