How to replace the starter motor on the Nissan Sentra 2007 to 2012

[@dalion7790]

Thank you simple and perfectly explained. Installing mine today!!!

[@HaynesManuals]

Glad it helped

Thanks for the video, this was huge for me! I just replaced my fiancée’s starter following this video. Thanks for helping us save the additional $300 that the shop quoted us, not to mention getting her car fixed tonight so she could drive home. In case it’s helpful for someone else, this is all I used: - 12 mm ratchet socket wrench (electrical component nut) - another smaller ratchet socket wrench, maybe 8 mm or so (other electrical component nut) - 3/4” normal wrench (for the lug nut things) I’m new to this stuff and I did it in a dark parking lot out in 4 degree weather in MN with a phone flashlight in about an hour and a half, so it’s definitely doable for novices!

Good stuff man! You'll be a great husband.

[@AxxinTheSupernova]

Appreciate it

That had to be the easiest starter I've replaced in my life. Great Video

This was such a useful video!! I had to replace my dead starter in the parking lot outside my office! i did it with this video!! THANK YOU!!

[@sernasamia1]

I had my son buy me a set of gear wrenches set and sockets set at autozone. He arrived with tools and starter (I had at home. Because my car was displaying symptoms of starter problems),

starter bolts size 18 , 12 and 8 for the smaller ones

[@AdenNotLoud]

Thanks for making this, my starter in my 2011 sentra wentout and this looks like it be easy

[@rc39_plays]

Would be helpful if he told us what size tools he used

[@xxlpatriot3077]

If you have to ask, you should probably take it to a shop. Comments like these are why people think twice about making videos to be helpful...

[@rc39_plays]

@@xxlpatriot3077 i had to figure it out on my own but i could have saved time knowing already, i dont need a shop i work on my cars at home.

[@jamesmcloving1935]

@@rc39_plays if you work on your cars at home, then you won’t need to be asking questions like, “ …wHaT sIzE tOoL yOu UsEd”.

[@rc39_plays]

@@jamesmcloving1935 yea i would know cuz i replace starter motors everyday right... its not like i commented under an oil change video asking what size tool when i already know since thats something thats done more than starter motors

[@jamesmcloving1935]

@@rc39_plays lmao if you work on starter liters every day then you wouldn’t need the measurements since you already have a good idea of what size it will be

[@eriktomas9194]

torque values are 44 inch, 82 inch, and 46 ft/lb for the MR20.

[@YanDaOne_QC]

I'm doing that on a 2009 spec v and let me tell you how lucky you are with all that free space..... just to find a way to get the socket on those bolts is a pain. Now both mounting bolts are removed but the starter isint getting anywhere. It feels like bolts are still there. Even when hammered it doesn't move at all..... 😑

[@asdavilas3720]

Very good

[@tyvonjackson3866]

Very informative but ovrr time the mounting bolt are so tight. A torque wrench it's definitely needed

[@johngonzales702]

What size r the nuts that u took off to disconnect the wiring

[@nickylantigua303]

12 and 8 for the smaller one

[@deknowledgeseeker516]

Thank you

[@mackharrison9906]

Thank y'all soooo much!!!

[@samberr3076]

tool sizes would've been nice but great simple video

[@WV591]

if only it was this easy on 2005 sentra

[@holam7679]

Thank my friend save much money for me

[@edgarcds210]

I have a question is it ture if u replace the starter will the engine die ???

[@laurieann1536]

No

[@determineddad7935]

No way

[@ViiralHype]

was this a california emissions starter

[@vanityisntdead]

I’m struggling to take off my mounting bolts any tips they are really on there!!

[@determineddad7935]

Get a pipe over your Ratchet.

[@RJ-rs6rf]

Penetrating fluid... Vibrate the fluid into bolt holes... Small hammer tapping rapidly on the housing.. Not the bolt... If can let it sit over night or for as long as can.. Penetrating fluid... Pb blaster liquidwrench etc..

[@jayinla228]

What sizes are the bolts?

[@bigchief1175]

I think 20mm

[@vamphunterx]

Okay but where is the damn starter motor AT?!!!!

[@SangreAzul949]

I installed it, it turned on, but a day later it did not turn on, what else could it be?

[@determineddad7935]

Battery?

[@NeutronX101]

Relay

[@luisson2002ify]

Thanks.
