I replaced the serpentine belt on the Honda today. This is the 3rd belt. OEM was replaced around 80k. I'm at 166k miles currently.
Much to my surprise, the annoying "lag" I was getting during acceleration, which a friend of mine who had the same car confirmed, is gone! I had no idea a new belt could make that much of a difference in power.
I read this before I did the change today and I have noticed the exact same thing.

I noticed a big change in the RPM and acceleration. RPM moves quite better than before and acceleration is a lot smoother.
I'll be doing the Mazda next.
