    I don't understand what kind of people dislike this video. This is one of the best video on youtube. Everything is shown in real life, very clearly, crystal clear visuals, and very good commentary, good lightining and very helpful. Thank you very much for sharing with TH-camrs. Keep up the good work. I liked your video. Thumbs up for you.

    First, good video. I just changed out an alternator on a 2011 Enclave. I watched this video and it helped, A LOT. High points for me was removing the stud with E10 socket. A must! Also was really glad that you showed the parts of the idler pulley. Of course, mine hit the ground and blew apart so it was good you showed how it went back together. Also, I liked how you showed the belt routing to put it all back together. There are diagrams out there but seeing the actual parts made it easier. Now, nothing to do with the video...This is a tough repair. I think I have like 7 hours into it and lots of swearing! Sorry, I am trying. Being an automotive engineer and understanding that there are repair standards I say this. An alternator is a wear out kind of part. You need to be able to replace it without a fist fight. This is terrible. A fail for the manufacturer in my opinion. My hats off to you guys who have to deal with this kind of thing every day to make a living! Good video, thanks!

    Bravo. Ty for your help. That e10 socket recommendation saved my life. I wanted to replace the belt while I was down there but there was an additional bracket that would have needed removal and I felt the old belt still looked good. Thanks again

    Great job on the video. I literally just came in from doing this. Unfortunately, I did the tensioner first and then found out it was my alternator but this video helped me not curse and punch things. Follow his direction and walk away before things go sour and you'll be good. Nicely done Jabo👍👍

    I just wanted to know what size torx socket did you use? Was that a 15? I am having trouble with that one bolt. I literally removed the upper radiator hose and of course the power steering and a.c hoses.

  • @kylekjerstad7123
    @kylekjerstad7123 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you for the guide but you should have explained that you will want the post on the right side on not the left when installing the new alternator. This allows the alternator to swing out and makes easy work of installing the idle pulley. If you use the left one then it wont clear the wheel well and its a nightmare.

    Great video, gotta do an alternator for my mom and this was extremely helpful. I see you're using some Icon tools. How are they holding up? I love their sockets, their ratchets need to be lubed a little more and kept tight in my experience. Those flex head ratcheting wrenches, are they Icon as well?

    since you mentioned it as if you were the authority... the British pronunciation is N-clave.. the standard American pronunciation is On-clave & last I checked, we gave the British a certificate of divorce in 1776. Otherwise, a good video

    engineered as complicated as a new mercedes benz what a piece of sh**** engineering an alternator should be in an are that takes no more than 4-10 minutes to remove. Maybe pulling the engine out of the car would have been faster to reach that alternator. Thanks I wont be buying this car.
