    Thanks for doing this. My neighbor has an older Mercedes and all 5 of her belts were loose enough squeal. This really made it go much faster because I didn't have to discover how to do something first time.

      Its a lot easier doing it after watching someone do it first. That is why I make the videos.

    My 1984 500 SEL needed to almost detach the power steering pump to get new belts in place. The length was same than old one according to markings, still was quite tricky. Thanks for useful video, greetings from Finland!

      Finland - it gets super cold in the winter. Here in Silicon Valley, California (Sunnyvale), we are so spoiled. People get mad when it goes to 33 F in the winter. It only rains, no snow.
      Do they use salt on the roads to melt the ice and snow?

      @@davidlis6709 Nowadays we get about -20...-25C at the worst in southern Finland, but in the north it is easily -30C and colder during few months. And yes, the roads are salted mostly in southern part of the country.
      Personally I enjoy warm summer but after the winter even our modest +20C summers feel awesome 8-)

      @@Bashi88 I hate the cold. I grew up in Amsterdam, New York State. It would go to -30F. And snow. Today, if I want to see snow, I turn on the TV.
      The cars only last about 12 years because they rust to nothing.

    Thank you for this video. I see the alternator belt snapped, what happens incase one of the power steering belts runs off pulley, the one on the back side of the pulley. Can this cause other damage within engine or not?

    • @davidlis6709
      @davidlis6709  2 года назад

      It will probably make a lot of noise. If the belts are not connected and the pump stops working, it will steer real hard.

      Sorry, I have no idea. I took the old belts to the auto parts store and they gave me the right ones. I compared them at the store.
