Hello,

Is it wearing on both edges? Check pulley for damage on the inner and outer lips also check and make sure that something hasn't come loose and rubbing on belt.

It is only wearing on the inside edge. We have had the mechanic check for loose parts and all appear to be tight.

Has he checked for damaged to the lip of the pulleys?

Also have him check for misaligned pulleys.
