As a result of two years of hard service on awful roads , the tie - rod ends and front shocks needed replacing when I got the car back in ' 06 . Beyond that , it 's needed front rotors , pads all around , and a water pump . I ' m pretty good about oil changes every 3 - 4 K , and while the water pump was out I asked for a fresh serpentine belt .

Question: What might be the reason I asked for a new serpentine belt ?
Answer: Because the belt needs to be removed before the rotor is replaced .None of the above choices .Because the water pump needs to be removed before shocks are removed .Because the water pump needs to be removed before replacing the rotor .
