ATTENTION: Your belt might have a tight tolerance. You will not be able to slide the belt onto the ‘harmonic balancer’ last. You will slide it onto each accessory and slip it LAST onto the tensioner pulley. This pulley has no lip and will slip on with relative ease. Done ✅
Thank you guys at 1A Auto Parts for these great How-to Vids! I have replaced on my 2010 Nissan Altima 2.5 S the Catalytic Converter Assembly (Bank 1 and Bank 2), all of 4 Motor Mounts, Spark Plugs, Bank 2 02 Sensor, Brake Pads and Rotors all around, Serpentine Belt 😜, PCV Valve, and a Transmission Flush! I used your videos for all to make sure I was doing the job the right way! And yes I got most of the parts from 1A Auto and I really love my new TRQ Drilled and Slotted Rotors and Ceramic Pads! Great quality OEM parts for really competitive prices! Saved hundreds going with you guys instead of going with the local large chain parts stores!
I found that by placing the belt on A/C last instead of the Harmonica Balancer, it was WAY easier. The HB has the belt seated farther back and much harder to get to last.
Alex thanks just changed belt on daughters Altima and could not get in on the harmonic balancer. I then put it on the balancer first like you said and it went right on around the AC compressor. Thanks for the tip.
These guys use so many special tools that they don’t need to in their videos. it runs people off from buying parts from them or working on their vehicle by themselves
Great video, very thorough. I agree with the previous comment that sometimes the new belt is too tight to slide it over the crank pulley last so you will need to slide it over the tensioner last.
Ngl this was still pretty challenging. I wouldn't say hard cause it's a simple thing but getting it on there Maan. I was so ready to do it tomorrow and kept pressing and when it finally slipped on. I wasn't even relieved more like confused as why I did the same thing 20+ times and this was the time it worked.
Hello i have a 2012 altima...changed the serpentine belt and got the belt from advance auto and new belt would not fit nomatter what i tryed....checked the lengths and learned the new belt was shorter but that what was listed and same for autozone...after researching learned that there a power steering pump and a electric assisted steering version of the car...i had to buy a belt 3 sizes up and fit perfectly and been driving over a year now...
+Jake Kumar The part in this video fits your application, and the install should be the same or similar. Buy this part on 1AAuto.com: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
I’m having the same issue, changed the alternator took it to a remanufacturer and had it redone put it in but now the belt won’t fit went and bought another belt they’re the exact same size and new one won’t fit either
1: you bought the wrong belt. 2: slip the belt on to every pulley and press it over the tensioner pulley last. Mine also wouldn’t seat using his exact method. The lip on the balancer is too wide even with the tensioner pulled to its end. So the tensioner has no lip; so it can slip on last and done ✅
Remake this video showing the belt going on the tensioner pulley last. (As many have said here.) I just lost 2 hours of my life because of this video. Watched a different video showing tensioner last and got it first try.

Hey that's the real way, I saw you comment late, it took like 2 hours, if I saw you comment early maybe it will take 1 hour.
Did the same thing

The one thing I don't understand about your videos is why there's no cussing and swearing at the car in them!!lol💯🤣😭😂🤩😁
😂😂
8:43 “that’s what she said” 😅😅😅

4:33 ‘you do you BOO BOO?’ 😂😂

One thing I liked about my 90's Buick Riviera was how easy it was to replace the serpentine belt from the top.
Wow! I've never seen such a clean wheel well! Musta pressure washed it and put a shiny new rotor on too!

I just did mine and ur video helps me.
Thank you 😊
What is the code on that serpentine belt used in this video? I have a 2013 nissian Altima 2.5l with electronic power steering I need a belt that fit
the EPS altima will use 6pk1430
Go to the auto parts store, tell them what you need. They'll figure it out!
Can you apply this video for the Altima 3.5 2010?

Is this the only belt on Altimas?
My car is making a squealing noise & I want to see if it's this belt or if there are more.
Is the belt replacement on a 1997 nissan altima the same?
Do you need to remove the tire in order to change the alternator??????
Tried replacing one today on an 08 Altima. Couldn't get the belt on. Turned the tensioner as far as it would go.
I’m having the same issue, changed the alternator took it to a remanufacturer and had it redone put it in but now the belt won’t fit went and bought another belt they’re the exact same size and new one won’t fit either

How did you end up fixing it? That’s what’s happening to me
Mines to tight is there anyway the auto zone people gave me the wrong belt or is it to cold?
Do the tensioner last. It will save you time.
I’m about to install one on my daughters car today, I will let you know how it goes.
How’d it go
Did it work
Please do! We're all dying to hear!
How to set taming chain for benz MLS 2oo2
What if I can't get the tensioner to pull down to get the belt back on?
This looks like a V6 (the slotted drilled rotor of an SE-R). Are the V6 and I4 the same?
v6 won't have hub caps. this is a base S
Thanks to you, got this done in about 30 min. Thanks for putting this out, great job!

That’s a random multiple misfire
No misfire
