Thanks bru, I was puzzling with the powersteering belt.

[@Realpreshaanb]

Glad I could help

[@bigash_n54]

Just bought one of these cars, with every option extra :). My power steering belt is partly not sitting in all the groves :( thanks for vid. Also these engines are bloody noisy, they like tractors i thought there was something wrong with it loool

[@Realpreshaanb]

It be like that with the engine noise 😅 hope the video was helpful, and hope you enjoy your car🙏🏼

[@vevensundraj9621]

Great video bro... Thank you

[@brucenorval2308]

Easiest way to remove that belt if your definitely replacing is just to cut off.

[@Realpreshaanb]

I could have done that . . . . But didn't 😂

[@dovidasb]

6:42 min when u start ur car, that belt noise, isit normal? I have the same sound when I start or stop.

[@Realpreshaanb]

Hi, yes it did make the noise when i replaced the belt, but after some time it stopped making noises all together. But for me, i had replaced the belt, the tensioner and the other idle pulley.

[@dovidasb]

@@Realpreshaanb I did loads, new water pump, crankshaft pulley, new belt , new alternator , new belt, new tensionier , sitll making sound.

[@Realpreshaanb]

That's really strange, how long has it been since replacing the belt?

[@dovidasb]

@@Realpreshaanb about 3months now... Tried to change it 2times :( not sure .... air condition compresor pulley has slight movment... but I think shouldn't it move a bit?

[@Realpreshaanb]

Best bet it to have a professional to have a look at it and they would be able to point out what it causing it to make the noise

[@ZubairKaran]

Shot bro, u helped me out there

[@jamess8407]

Good video, my car was having a bit of trouble (slow starting) which happened at the same time of the belt squeaking, now it won’t start at all so I’ve just ordered the kit and I’ll be following your video during the process for sure! Does it matter if the plastic power steering pump pulley is accidentally spun at all? Or any of the pulleys for that matter? I’m slightly worried about accidentally spinning them when the old belt is removed haha I need some reassurance that I’m not going to permanently disable my vehicle 😂 With the symptoms I’ve had I’m ASSUMING this belt is the issue anyway.

[@Realpreshaanb]

Thank you for your support to the channel 🙏🏼 it means a lot. Secondly no it doesn't matter if you turn the engine over Manually, be it the pulleys either on the crank or power steering pump, you will need to turn the engine over Manually to get the power steering belt back on either way as it is a stretch belt 👌🏼 I hope this helps and that your car's issue is resolved soon 🙏🏼

[@jamess8407]

Preshaan Briglall you don’t need to thank me, I’m grateful for the video and help you provide. So I must thank you. I cut the current belt off only to realise I was sent the wrong replacement belt 😩 so now I have a car with no belts at all haha I’m not replacing the tensioner...but I assume it’s okay to keep the current one on and just replace the belt? 🤔

Very good

[@vevensundraj9621]

How u doing Sir.. Were did you get the little M badges that are mounted on the sides of your car..

[@Realpreshaanb]

They're the generic m badges that you can pick up from almost any accessories store... I just put the vinyl that i had for the wrap over the m colours... That was years back

[@VisionFXShopisdown]

Thank you dude! You saved me.

I'm glad i could be of some help🙏🏼

Merci pour ces bon conseils ✌️✌️

[@krumzlatanov2852]

Nice video mate. Do you have a video so I can watch how to replace the belt tensioner? Thanks

[@Realpreshaanb]

Thank you, unfortunately i do not have a video on replacing the belt tensioner, but i will be making one soon. Its relatively easy to do so, it took me around 5 minutes to replace mine

[@krumzlatanov2852]

@@Realpreshaanb not a problem. Just needed to know should I replace the torx bolt witch is holding the tensioner with a new one or can reuse the same one. Cheers

[@Realpreshaanb]

If your new tensioner comes with a new bolt, its advisable to use the new one, if not then the original will do just fine👌🏼

[@Realpreshaanb]

Part number 11287791786 Code 4PK X 810 Its a stretch belt, you would have to turn the motor over by hand to get it to slot into the pulleys

@@Realpreshaanb i have the 4PK 830 ELSAT

[@Realpreshaanb]

I'm not too sure if that is correct, i did a quick search and that belt comes up as a nissan / Acura belt... I went off the realoem site which i used my VIN number to find the one i have

[@farisjoomun]

@@Realpreshaanb How did you get that belt to fit from the crankshaft to power steering? I bought an OEM belt just like the one you've used and it wont fit. It won't stretch far enough to go over the pulley, any help would be appreciated!

[@josiptadic8301]

It still made noise when you turn on a car; after you repleaced the belt. Is that normal?

[@Realpreshaanb]

Little squeaks are normal... As it settles in, the noise reduces. Since i replaced the belt, the noise has gone

[@josiptadic8301]

@@Realpreshaanb I replaced both belts, water pump,crank pulley, tensioner pulley and only after I replaced all those things the noise appeared. Today I changed the alternator belt again after 2 weeks because it started to make squealing when warm, but I bought little shorter belt so it's not squeling but that start-up noise appears sometimes. Checked tensioner and other pulleys, mehnanics says that he has no clue.

[@Realpreshaanb]

Is the start up noise a short squeak or it is like how my car was in the beginning of the video, because if its a little squeak, it's nothing major, my car makes that noise since i bought it and even after changing the crankshaft pulley damper...

[@josiptadic8301]

@@Realpreshaanb It's a small squeak like your's after you changed the belt. But my car didn't made it before the change, so I doesn't make a sense.

[@Realpreshaanb]

That's quite puzzling, its very hard to actually pinpoint where it could be coming from, I've noticed that a few cars in my area all make that sound, I've gotten used to it😅, hopefully you can get it sorted out buddy 👌🏼

[@olivieru4871]

thank you for the video, I have a question: I would like to know what tip to use to relax the tensioner belt please ?

[@Realpreshaanb]

Thank you for the support, i used a T55 torx which releases the tension on the actual tensioner. You can use a t60 if available. But the t55 works fine

[@omchhetri5541]

I have the same kind of metalic noise when i start the car. It came after i replaced belt tenaioner, idler pulley and bothe belts. Have you discovered the cause of this sound? I read somewhere on the blog that the was related to timing chain guide issue. It’s really annoying. Have you solved this issue? Would be very grateful to hear from you. Thanks for the video👍🏻

[@Realpreshaanb]

After i Changed the belts and the pulleys the noise gradually went away, I've noticed that slight squeak when switching off is common as its happens on a lot of cars I've seen, i haven't noticed anything from the timing Chain guide so I can't comment on that. I do however need to replace the power steering belt and the secondary idler pulley since that makes a bit of a noise now and then

[@alanw5812]

No! The pulley very sharp ,do this will cut the belt,need to use tool.

[@octaviancalin2791]

Is still there the noise ..replace the belt with GENUINE belt one and the noise will be gone ..all other belt are making noise ..the genuine one have some striations on the back

[@Realpreshaanb]

Compared to the noise it was making before I changed it? I'd take a small squeak over that anyday... Also after a few days all noises were gone completely and up till now I've hadn't had any problem 👌🏼

[@robertmccready505]

at wat mileage does this have to done

[@Realpreshaanb]

It's recommended between every 50-100k the tensioner at least once every 3-4 years unless sudden failure... Belts every 50-100k

[@Desmodromic916]

Sounds like tractor, just like mine 😂
