Wish the symptoms were documented. Like grinding sounds or squealing or whatever may have lead to knowing that the tensioner needed to be replaced. Great video guys. Thanks. 🤙🏾

Do you have to lift the engine?

Thx had a squeaking belt/tensioner & didn’t know how to access the tensioner bolt, this helped a lot

Thank you so much for this video. It would be impossible to change the tensioner without moving the engine and your video showed exactly how to do that. One correction: the tensioner bolt is T-50 not T-45 (at least it is on my 2007 Nissan).

Really appreciate the catalog of quality videos you guys have. Because of that I made sure to source all the parts I needed from you guys. Appreciated!

Thanks for the great instructional video! I've just repaired my 2008 t31 X trail, slightly different I had to raise my engine up about 50mm so I could get onto the torx bolt, I can confirm it is a T50 not a T45 on my engine although I used a T45 at first to get it out.

Is it necessary to swap out the idler pulley for a new one too ? Or just replace the belt tensioner only? 2011 versa 1.8 hatchback

You can access the belt via passanger side, remove tire and spalsh guard.

Great job and and video. Saves me time trying to figure it out myself on these cold winter days.

Y’all lowered the engine to access the tensioner, then lowered it again to put the motor mount brackets back on. This means y’all jacked up the engine and didn’t include it in the video, otherwise the brackets wouldn’t have lined up

I have the same nissan car with the 2.0l I had to jack the engine up to do the exactly same thing. So the only thing I could come up with is you must have lifted the engine up alot to have it go down to go through same hole to Extract Bolt out of tensioner, video did help some thanks

Please make a video that shows the hole that you used to access the hex bolt. I have watched several videos of this procedure, and there is no hole in the fender well of any Versa hatchback. I am also well into replacing my a/c compressor, my belt and tensioner. There is no hole in my fender well for accessing the tensioner hex bolt. All I need to see is the hole, or did you drill a hole?

Followed this step by step and did the job. You guys are awesome. Only i needed universal joint socket adapter to get the T50 in otherwise would of not gotten the job done.

Excellent video man, I am experiencing this issue right now,however, is it necessary to gain access to change this part the way you did it? The reason I am asking is that the mechanic went in from behind the steering wheel. Just want to know the safest way to avoid any future issues. Thanks for your time and experience

For those of you coming here solely to do a belt swap: take off your front right wheel, and with a 14mm wrench, pull the tensioner towards the back of the car. You can then rest the other end of the wrench on the nut on the pulley wheel below the tensioner when taking the old belt off

So first you snug the floor jack up against then engine oil pan, then you said "lower" engine after the engine mount is removed to align tensioner bolt with hole in frame, but then during reassembly you say to "lower" the engine again to reinstall engine mount, so something seems off if you reverse everything to reassembly. Did you actually "raise" the engine to align the tensioner bolt with the frame hole? Or at some other time?

I’m about to tackle this and have the same question.

@lowspeed2000 2 жыл бұрын

I think they missed one raise. Between putting the pulley and putting the belt back. So at the point you need to lower or raise a little more to get it aligned.

Its a T50 on my Sentra 2011. T45 was too loose.

Great video... My task at hand tomorrow will be tapping the A/C compressor bolt holes and installing Heli Coils because the bolts snapped from the failed tensioner :(

@lowspeed2000 2 жыл бұрын

So it's safe to raise your engine from the oil pan? Won't it get damaged?

I have a 2007 Sentra 2.0L. I followed the video exactly, but couldn’t figure out how to move the tensioner to get the belt off. I borrowed the serpentine belt removal tool from Auto Zone, but the 14mm claw wrench only adjusts by 90 degree increments, and when I am finally able to get it on the tensioner, it won’t move because the angle is bad and there’s too much stuff in the way. What tool do you use to get the belt off? The video says a 14mm wrench. How long is it? And where do you stick it in from?
