Note to add, just because your belt is bad or worn out doesnt mean you should toss it in the trash as it could come in handy should the new belt have catastrophic failure. A bad belt is better than no belt at all. Just my $0.02 :)
@@tempacc9589 I'm talking about if the new belt breaks while you're driving, so you're not waiting for a tow truck. Get a new belt as soon as you can, save the old one for when in a bind.
New belts will stretch a bit in the first week or so after install, so it's wise to check the tension at that time and adjust it if there's too much slack.
4:38 Make belt more pliable . Some people soak their belt overnight in 303 Protectant . Wipe off belt and install and I perioddically spray the belts with this , even when engine is running .
It's squeals ugh so embarrassing, when i start it when it's cold, but when i tried driving off it squeals Again, thn i realized i had to let the engine warm up first before taking off😅😮Thank u much😊u described my squealing to a T🥰
May be the belt tensioner. See if you can see the tensioner arm moving or sloppy movement while you watch it. Google the belt tensioner location for your car. Generally easy to replace
I couldn't figure out why my belt was squeking. The belts and tensioner was good. turns out my oil level was 2 quarts low. The squeking went completely away. Weird!
Thank you but I changed the belt and tensioner twice and it still squeeks. I changed all the pulleys, and even tried a new alternator but the problem is still there. I will change them now for the third time and I will try different company for parts -.- ..... It's very annoying.
Sounds like it could be an alignment issue, all pulley's must be aligned with each other. Watch the belt on the pulley's, it should not be moving around.

Belts are cheap. If your belt is bad buy a new one and wait a day for it to get delivered.

Not bad narration for a FREE video
Never spray your belt with any lubricant, that is a really easy way for it to slip.
Normally, when it only squeaks on start-up, it just needs tension adjustment, especially if it's a new belt or it was removed and reinstalled.

WD40 is a belt killer
Rip in the chat 🤦🏾♂️ about to order a new one

I hope you replaced the necessary components by now
@@JamarD421 it was the cold weather..since it warmed Up, it's fine now😌
Use silicone spray. On the inside of the belt.
Mine makes a noise when cold and not when warm. It's really annoying. I replaced it 2 years ago. The noise stopped for a few months and came back.
I’m having same problem.

Great video buddy.. i own a 2002 C5 Corvette 59K miles belt squeaking trying to diagnose AC belt, belt tensioner pulley , or harmonic balancer ?

C5 vettes harmonic balancer usually goes out at 50k miles
I have new belt. Changed garage. Now terrrible with blower on. AC or not. No blower quiet

Check the harmonic balancer
Is a Mazda car ?...
@@MDEV-86x86 No, It's Folkswagen Golf IV 1.8t AGU
@@jkpresident4110 OK.
I'm guessing a bearing somewhere that tightens up when cold.
5:23 Is It OK to drive with a squeaky belt?
Use silicone spray. If the squeak comes back you have pulley or belt problems.
Was this made with AI or something?
Yes
YES Alfred Ibanez is tired of being a mechanic and wants to be TH-cam star
No
ding ding ding ‼️
100%
I soak my NEW belts, in Armour All - for about 2 days = then change it.
It always goes away the moment i lift the hood
So the alternator load doesn’t exceed the drive belt ability to transmit the high load??????change it is the answer.
Thank You
