2008 Toyota Prius. They all like this, but some other models have more room over the top nut, which makes it easier to work on.

Hi mate just came across your video. The sound of the whine when youd sitting inside the car is the exact aound im getting on a cold start and also when driving the car mlre noticable at a higher rev when shifting gears. I just replaced tensioner pulley bearing and both belts but not the tensionee unit itself. Do you know if a worn alternator would make that kind of whining noise towards the very beginning of the video?
@skycar2508
@skycar2508 2 ай бұрын
Hi there, I would remove the alternator belt and run the engine without it. If the noise is gone, then the alternator bearing is bad or power steering pump is bad. Also, have you tried putting the transmission in neutral and hearing if the noise is gone? Just to exclude the possible transmission noise.

Thanks, it can, but I would check the sway bar links for the pop sound. I had this problem before, after installing aftermarket links. Usually happens at slow speeds in parking lots. Have someone turning the steering wheel, and listen closely, they will make popping sounds.

Couldn't believe how loose the nut was at the start of the video with the pin still in? The safety pin that saved the day. It's from improper torque. What low profile wrench doesn't flare at the factory torque spec? 76 or 90 ft lbs.

@skycar2508
@skycar2508 10 ай бұрын
The only way to tighten the bolts to exact torque, is to use a torque wrench. I did just approximate torque.
@tomashford2247
@tomashford2247 10 ай бұрын
Not to criticize, and I think the video was 99% good. However, when you are tightening the lug nuts on the wheel we should all do so in a STAR pattern rather than sequentially. By saying "a star pattern", I mean first tighten one lug to a fairly low torque, then pick a lug across from the first one, then the one next to the first one (which is across from the 2nd) and so on. Go around, increasing torque, 2 or 3 times until reaching the correct torque. This way there will be no run-out, or wobbling of the wheel. Use a torque wrench, if possible. This I learned from a master mechanic.
