Rogue and Macht Schnell pulleys are also great. Both use off-the shelf belts that can be found in any auto supply house when replacement time comes.

I have the Macht Schnell pullies on my 2011 DCT and love them. Pretty noticeable power gains.

Dinan. Read their article on pulley's also. Its an interesting, technical one (Dinancars.com - Dinan University). It will make you realize the importance of a good brand.

Dinan warranty is not provided by BMW, don't be fooled.

Get the Active Autowerke. Ask them for an extra belt. They stand behind their products

Did an Active dealer tell you that? Because they've been known to do that.

Just like Schnell said above.....

If you have a Dinan pulley and your engine blows up and BMW decrees that it is the Dinan pulley that caused it all, Dinan will pay for the complete issue. The warranty is not that BMW will honor problems caused by Dinan issues (although some dealers might); the warranty is that Dinan will fix the entire problem caused on your car if its due to the Dinan part. They match the BMW warranty, meaning if you have 3 years left on your BMW warranty, Dinan will warranty in the manner described above for the duration of that BMW warranty.

I don't know if you can say that for the other manufacturers.
