2013-2019 1.8L Nissan Sentra - Serpentine Belt Replacement

[@jg109426]

Nice video ! For anyone reading the comments if you just cut the belt before replacing it that saves you time.

[@louiggeemachado9599]

I would hold the belt until I know it’s for sure good just in case.

[@Bushwakbill]

Ya how do you re attach it ?

[@jg109426]

@@Bushwakbill there’s a pulley tensioner you can use a wrench most times to get the belt back on the car

Anyone who is having trouble installing the belt due to it seeming like the belt is too tight please read! If you have spent more than 10 minutes trying to install the belt and you feel like it won't fit, YOU ARE RIGHT. I can almost guarantee that it is your belt tensioner. Just due yourself a favor and replace the tensioner as well. I see that this guy has a good video of replacing the tensioner as well. I spent 4 hours trying to replace the belt without the tensioner. Got a new tensioner and it took me 5 minutes.

[@tyronesmith3812]

Should you replace the tensioner as well when you change the belt?

[@victorcruz4179]

Did you end up replacing them?

[@tyronesmith3812]

No the car got totaled luckily right before I was going to change it. It’s recommended you do change the tensioner with a belt tho, unless you’re cheap

[@ragnarok2501]

I might've missed if you said it but how long is the belt? Im getting several different lengths from different sources that say they'll fit my 2018 Sentra

I ran into a problem replacing the belt so the old one broke off and I got the new oem belt from Nissan the problem is I can’t get the belt to fit around the crankshaft I don’t have enough slack even when I’m pulling the tensioner all the way over and the tensioner bolt is now stripped so I have to use channel lock vise grips to move it over now so I’m not sure what to do anymore

[@tepelena]

Check your belt. It may be wrong.

[@nathanarmendariz48]

@@tepelena I’ve checked it I took the part number from the old belt and gave it to Nissan and they gave me that belt I even went to part stores like o’rielys and auto one and they gave me a similar belt because I thought the belt was the wrong size as well but every belt that pops up for that car is the right size but for some reason I just can’t get any slack out of the belt when I move the tensioner over which is odd

[@nathanarmendariz48]

Update I found out the belt tensioner is bad I can’t push is all the way over to even put the pin in to even give me enough slack so I’m going to replace the tensioner and go from there

[@Jhonyhustle]

@@nathanarmendariz48did you figure out? Was it the tensioner?

[@nathanarmendariz48]

@@Jhonyhustle yeah it was the tensioner there’s two notches on it and the tensioner is supposed to slide back and line up with the notch and u can slide a pin in to hold it there well the tensioner wasn’t pushing all the way back to the notch to give me the slack I needed to get the belt on so I had to loosen up the engine mount and jack the motor up to get the tensioner off once I replaced it the tensioner went back to where I needed which is almost fully back and then I got the new belt on

[@SwervoDouble]

Hardest part on these is keeping that damn wheel trim off lol

Very Good.

[@jhonsonmojica9061]

Looks intimidating but it is very simple

[@johnviltia9052]

Gracias excelente aporte …👍🏻 Algún video sobre el cambio de aceite de transmisión CVT de este auto … Tengo este sentra lleva muchos kilómetros sin fallas en la CVT (mas de 200 km) y he oído comentarios que si no te falla mejor no le muevas pero lo que quería hacer es , si no le cambio todo su aceite por completo hacerlo de a poco a poco es decir cambiar su filtro, ponerle unos 2 litros,encenderlo y dejar que tire el excedente … crees que sea buena idea ..?😅 Saludos

[@pabloaguilar1962]

Yo lo hice al mio , lleva 2 filtros uno en la charola del aceite ( carter ) y otro chico en el enfriador del aceite ( oil cooler) yo se lo hice al mio a las 120 mil millas y me quedo al cien. No le hagas el completo flush. . Solo cambia el aceite que este en ka charola lo sacas y mides lo que sacaste y le agregas la misma cantidad creo son como 4 quartos que sea el aceite de nissan cvt.
