There’s a ton of tutorials on this car for changing the belt. Yours was by far the most straight forward and showed EVERY step which a lot of people missed. I was having trouble figuring out the order of loosening the two 13mms for the tensioner. You covered it perfectly by showing the timing and direction for it. THANK YOU.
thank you, im so glad to be able to help..it really means a lot to me🙂
Thank you for your video. Your angles allow great visibility and your explanation is concise. You also explain how to gauge the tension to the belt. Great tip!
Thank you so much for this, I just got this replaced on my girlfriends car and got her back on the road in less than 30 minutes. Your video made this whole job painless and again we both thank you! Cheers!
Your video helped a lot, just changed the belt on my 2018 no problem using this vid, car runs so much better. I’m a visual learner, You pressing on the belt and bending it to show tension really helped me gauge the tension, thank you!
very straight and to thr point and the directions are clear and most of all you don't miss steps... which is much appreciated. Most channels miss something and then you get lost when doing it yourself and you think, "oh no... this wasn't in the tutorial. Now what do I do??!" Great video.
Thank you🙂 i greatly appreciate it🙂
Great tutorial! Straight to the point, step by step how to replace the belt!
thank you🙂

Just did this myself , was pretty hard core haha. This video makes it look like Legos. You cant really see very much its mostly feel, but the video pointing out where to feel was a great help! The pully bolt was on pretty dang tight. Very good camera angles, getting those clear images is no joke.
Great job!🙂👍 thank you
Yup, the idler pulley nut on my 2013 Versa very tight. What did you use to break it free? I had to go get what Harbor Freight calls a Go-Through style socket set and ratchet.
I like that you covered all the little simple things that we always miss...
Thank you🙂
This and changing spark plugs took me 3 hrs yesterday, did the same things on a Toyota avanza and was 40 mins , damn you Nissan 🤣 great video
Amazing tutorial very sound and informative. Someone who has never worked in a car should be able to do this.👍👍
Thank you so much🙂
Replacing belt for the first time. Saving some money and headache with this video ! Thanks 👍!
Thats great🙂👍 hope everything goes well, good luck
@@backyardchevy328 actually going well . Just need to slap the new belt on, and I'm done ! 😁
@@markanthony7546 thats awesome! 👍
You did a very good job on this. Very helpful. Thank you.
Thank you🙂 i really appreciate it
Nicely done. Camera views & focus were spot on. And thanks for not using one hand for the tools & one for the camera.
Best Descriptive video I've seen, Thanks for posting!
Great tutorial. I really knew what i was getting into because of this. I did mine yesterday on my step-sons car. Alternator and belt. Took me a little over an hour start to finish and i was able to do everything from up top. i would say this it only possible if you have long skinny forearms. It was tight but doable.
Thank you🙂....thats great! Great job🙂👍
This was very clear n simple I like the demonstration
Thank you🙂
thank you so much for the amazing tutorial. as many of the other comments state, by far the best tutorial!
Thank you🙂 i appreciate it
This is exactly the video I needed to see. Thanks a bunch 😊
So glad to be able to help🙂👍
Changing my belt for my Versa 2013 for the fist time,, thank you and god bless!
Excellent very well and simple thorough instructions!
Thank you🙂
Thank you for the amazing video! 100s of videos like it but yours if by far the best, thanks your help again!
Thank you🙂 i really appreciate it
Very well said, right to the point in replacing belt
Thank you🙂
I laughed when you said "plenty of room" to work on the belt. I could barely even fit a wrench in there. 🤣
Go to China Freight Tools and get you a "Go-Through" socket and ratchet set. It will be so much easier.
Excellent video and information. Thank you for sharing 🙏👍
Great step by step thanks
Thank you sir very clear instructions.
I appreciate your will to teach the world 😇

thank you
Thank you for the support🙂
So great video by the way. I just replaced the belt on a 2018 Nissian versa and it's squeling pretty good. I've done many belts without an issue. I thought Maybe I over tensioned it
They can be pretty finicky...does it feel like its overtightened? Usually when squealing it's due to not enough tension
@@backyardchevy328 I over tightened the pulley I think that was main problem. Basically I got it back to good bye playing with the tensioner and the pulley bolt until the car didn't squeal anymore.
@@mr.kenslifeshop4034 glad u were able to get it fixed🙂👍
They recommended I should look at replacing this belt and quoted me $170 for parts and labor.
All I need is this RUclips video and the belt costs less than $20.
Only thing I don't have is a car jack, but even buying one would be cheaper than getting it replaced for $170
Yea a jack would be very useful and im sure itd pay off over time if u do other things like brakes etc..u might also try turning the wheel all the way to the right maybe it might give u enough room to do it without lifting it
Easy job... I drove the car up on ramps for access from underneath now that a 13mm is all I need.
That's great🙂👍
You're lucky that idler pulley nut came off so easily. Mine was tight and a open end wrench wouldn't do the trick and almost rounded it off. My Kobalt 3/8 drive ratchet wouldn't fit over the nut with the socket attached because the sheet metal of the unibody was too close to the pulley nut. My 1/4 drive fit but it broke when trying to loosen that nut. I ended up going to China Freight Tools to buy a push through style socket and ratchet set. It looks like a ratcheting wrench with sockets that are shallow and have a hex flats on thr outside. Spent more time messing with the damn splash shield and putting the wheel back on than changing the belt lol.
I just got some socket caps for 4 dollars from harbor freight and did it from the top in 10 mins . No tire or liner removal
Anyone have any tips/tools on how to get that tensioner bolt off if it’s too tight? I used a 13 mm wrench but it felt like Hercules couldn’t even get that loosened.
Great tutorial on how to replace the belt! but I’m having trouble with the belt making squealing sound when I turn the car on be then it goes away a few seconds later but then when I turn my ac on it squeals a lot and goes away after a minute
sounds like it could that it needs to be a lil tighter cause the belt is slipping
@@backyardchevy328 yep it just needed to be tighter and fixed it, thanks👍
@@eddyboy1249 thats great! So glad u were able to take care of it
The horror 😱 I felt when you had the belt over the little knob, what a relief when you fixed it 😂
Hey man! The pulley was insanely tight on there lol do you recommend tightening it back up like it was? Getting a little bit of a squeal noise at startup for like 3-5 seconds….
A squeal could mean there's not enough tension on da belt
Hi, nice video thanks!
The compressor pulley in the end of your video is not spinning, however. Is that not a problem? (My compressor pulley also doesn’t turn for a couple of seconds and then starts turning, not sure if it means I did something wrong.
U mean the clutch? The compressor clutch will only engage when ac is turned on
is this the 1.6 engine?
Hello. I just did this and now there’s a loud clicking noise coming from that area. Can anyone give me some advice on what that can be?
Good video. Seems same layout of my March 2013 except mine takes a longer belt the 1165. A mechanic tried the smaller belt but couldnt get it on then put old belt back on, 1 week later belt broke in 2 and it broke the AC coil wire. Got a temporary 6PK1165 and a different mechanic put that on, said the pully bracket was bent so he bent it back. AC company changed coil and its been running bad and noisy since then. Waiting on Nissan factory belt - 7PK1165. Would slimmer belt possibly cause rattling noise as you gas it and more if the AC is on? Plus lack of power and extreme lack of power with AC on (before belt broke there was a little loss of power but not like this). Checked computer and no error codes or misfires. Engine does shake too much though. I might try and put the right belt on myself this time. Its very hard to reach though.
Hey my belt needs changing too. I did notice loss of power like trying to hit 70mph to get on the hwy. also ac not as good. Are these all correlated?
Sounds like the belt is slipping. If its old, replace it
Thanks for sharing. Anyway, can we replace the serpentine, without loosen the pulley?only loosen the tensioner bolt?thanks
Well the bolt in the middle is what holds it in place and keeps it from moving so u gotta loosen it to be able to move the pulley with the adjusting/tensioner bolt when ur removing tension or applying tension
This is the answer im looking for thank you so much!
Great video, been looking for this, followed your instructions and successfully replaced my serpintine belt, tensioned the belt so I can flex 90 degrees like you did, started the engine and there was squeaking coming from the belt, took it for a spin and the squeak stops at high rpm but it's comes back at a low rpm, so I tensioned the belt a bit more and the squeak is not loud as before, I don't wanna over tension the belt, can you please advise on what I can do to stop the squeak completely, thanks.
Thank you🙂 how far can u rotate it..if it goes past 90 it would be too loose or does it barely reach 90 degrees? I do it so i can barely reach the 90 degrees..if the rubbers new it shouldnt squeal if its at proper tension and installed in the pulleys properly
@@backyardchevy328 If the rubbers new, I assume it's the belt your referring too, I tensioned so I can barley reach 90 degrees, I mostly believe it's the after market belt itself because the OEM belt never made any squeaks, I am in the process of replacing the compressor clutch, the belt is out so gonna check the pulleys for abnormal noise and wobbling, it's night time at the moment, will jump on it tomorrow, once the pulleys are fine I was sold a poor quality after market belt, can you recommend a couple good quality after market belts, I live in Trinidad so hoping we good a couple of the brand you recommend, thanks for the quick reply, really appreciate all the video and all the help
@@rogersingh3918 i actually prefer the gates brand theyre normally really good quality belts..but i did have a bad experience with one recently so i decided to go with the oem belt on this toyota i was working on and it worked so much better
@@backyardchevy328 Thanks for the advice, will be replacing the belt in future, will like the OEM if I can get my hands on one, if not the gates will have to do, thanks again bro, have a great day
@@rogersingh3918 anytime🙂 good luck
does anyone have the torque spec?✌ find it ill jot it down
.....was that compressor pulley not rotating? Shouldnt that be free spining until clutch is engaged?
The pulley part is spinning, the clutch which is the front part of the ac compressor doesnt engage til the ac button is pressed..so if i had turned on the ac, the pulley plus clutch would of been spinning as long as it had enough refrigerant
Nice video just to know what is the number belt?
Thank you🙂 4070443
😎
The first 13 mm bolt won't loosen up at all. Its too tight. Im about to ruin the nut. Is there something i have to loosen first??
The one on the pulley? Or the long adjuster bolt?...youll want to loosen the pulley bolt first..this will allow the long adjuster bolt to move back and forth bringing the pulley forward or back.
What a great video, very easy to follow instructions. I'm going to do my belt now. By the way, we also have a RUclips channel called "Hunt and Gather with the Chatters" where we go out as a family and hunt/fish for meals. Don't know if it's you're thing, but check it out if it is. Thanks again!
Thank you🙂 hope everything goes smoothly..good luck👍 yea ill be sure to check it out
what should be tightened/loosened when you hear a weird noise?
Like what kind of noise..is it a squeal? Does it go away after a while? Is this after a new belt?
@@backyardchevy328 not really a squeal that goes away after a while. More like a rubbing sound for every cycle. Like the belt is touching something at some point.
@@janmichaeladamos665 youve gone all around making sure its fulling seated in every pulley..if u look at it from above engine..does it seem like everything is lined up? If so id probably try removing it and look if u notice any sign of rubbing..usually that does happen if a pulley is wobbly or yea belt rubbing on front cover or somewhere
@@backyardchevy328 thanks man! Will be doing that tomorrow. I’ll keep you posted if I’d be able to fix the sound. :)
@@janmichaeladamos665 sounds great🙂 hope your able to figure it out..good luck
Just wondering, was that the 1.6l engine?
Yes, its the 1.6l
Thanks m8, im about to get this job done thanks to your video
@@NoLimitsFunGarage Thats Great! Good luck..hope all goes well🙂👍
What is the mileage of this car when you replaced the belt? Thank you..
It was at 120k
@@backyardchevy328 thank you...
Dude, I think you forgotten to put on that emergency brake
That bottom right pully was not moving…
I wish the auto makers had all that plastic stuck up their rear end.
Yea those clips are horrible when they become fragile with time
A belt length and part# would round out the video autozone gave me the wrong one twice!
The one i use in video is # 4070443..1138.5mm is length
Fuck it I’ll just pay to get it replaced lol. Great video tho
Thank you🙂...well at least u know whats involved if they try to overcharge lol
If you're changing your serpentine belt do not do what this video says it is ridiculously unnecessary I just changed mine it took me 5 minutes from the top easy to get to just as easy as any other belt I've ever done you do not have to tear apart the bottom of the car just to put a serpentine belt on that's ridiculous
What is so ridiculous about it? Not everyone has experience changing em and showing em where the belt is going and what is being tightened and in what steps is why i did this video..yes it can be done without taking apart bottom but it doesnt take that much longer.
@@backyardchevy328 it take alot more experience and tools to take the tire and wheel well off than just popping the hood grabbing a 13mm and ratchet or 13mm wrench and that's it. You should at least tell people how to know the right routing of the belt as in drawing a simple diagram.
See if your mom can do it from the top doofuss
Great Video! Thanks!
Thank you🙂
