DIY E46 serpentine/accessory belt and tensioner replacement (e-fan, hydraulic tensioner)

[@ElliottAlvis]

I sensed some *tension* between you and these belts.

Cute comment for sure

Nice work! I like seeing these kind of repairs, and glad to see you getting this ZHP back into shape!

This is one of my favorite videos I've watched on this platform 🎉🎉

The Tensioner cover! ahh

"I'm sure I'll remember this routing." "Shiiiiiiny." "There's a nice collection of broken garbage, let's take a look at the new garbage." "This is a slightly dished washer which goes on in *dish* direction" Came for the wrenching videos, stayed for the goofy/sarcastic humor.

Love this type of video. Great job!

Great Video ! Thank you

I just did this same service with these same parts on my ZHP 10 days ago. Did you "prime" the hydraulic tensioner per the instructions? There should have been illustrated instructions showing you to tension and release 3 times taking 5 seconds per cycle.

I did off camera but only because the internet told me to. The hiroglyphic instructions were... A bit obtuse

Interesting video, Jake. This is a job I need to tackle fairly soon on my Volvo 240 wagon. Do the timing belt and front seals at the same time as well as the oil separator and flame trap. Ain't European cars FUN?

😁"I'm SURE I'll remember this routing"😁 You're a better man than me; one glance at a belt routing diagram and my brain turns to JELLO! #WICHITAKZbinMAFIA

[@chriswood6413]

Did you get the dust cover on that tensioner later Jake?

[@theEagleBeagle]

Boooo. Too easy! ;) . Seriously though I enjoy your attitude and...Word choice I guess. Amusing and informative.

[@MichaelNovak1987]

Don't forget these need to be torqued correctly.

Lol I put on this video and I got a Jake from State Farm commercial
