NISSAN BELT AND BELT TENSIONER CHANGE V6

IT WAS NOISY (SQUEKING) AT COLD START AND FADE AWAY AS IT WARMS UP. THE PROBLEM IS THE BELT TENSIONER. BUT I MIGHT AS WELL REPLACE THE BELT TOO BECAUSE IT LOOK OLD AND WORN. REPLACEMENT OF BELT AND BELT TENSIONER ON V6 NISSAN. PATHFINDER, XTERRA, AND FRONTIER.
TOOLS NEEDED

PLIERS TO REMOVE THE HOSE CLAMP
3/8 RATCHET, PREFERABLY LONG OR EXTENDABLE

Thanks a lot man. Mechanic wanted to charge me 430$, bought the belt for 50$ and took abt 20 minutes with the video. Saved almost 400$ cuz of this

[@4x4AUTOBOT]

You're most welcome. 👌

[@Navman64]

Great video thankyou

[@gregorysorce1898]

Thanks for the video. I have to change mine this weekend so your video will help a lot. I also like your torque spec of "snuggy" - that's the same type of torque specs I use 😀

[@dirtyharry9922]

@@nobody1322 the 2 piece plastic shroud can be removed by three bolts on top, two in the middle. I didnt remove it completely, but it gave me enough room to work.

[@mathieugoulet17]

hey man! Thanks for sharing! You think I can remove the belt tensionner without the use of a wrench on a swivel? like the fix ones? Thanks in advance for your input :)

[@4x4AUTOBOT]

Yeah you could 👌.

[@yeomanhlbs9543]

Did you change your tensioner because of that chirping sounds? Did it fix the issue? I got the same chirping and its driving me mad

[@4x4AUTOBOT]

yes, specially heard on cold start

[@falankly7968]

great video bro, may I ask what grille lights those are, do you have a link?

[@4x4AUTOBOT]

a.co/d/aEHKkEK I got it from aliexpress but its the same as that.

[@therobertmclainpodcast]

Mine didn’t have enough clearance to remove the tensioner belt because of the fan.

[@4x4AUTOBOT]

It should all b the same with plenty of clearance unless you have a different engine.

[@normamendez3965]

Does it come with pullie you replaced?

[@4x4AUTOBOT]

The belt tensioner does come as an assembly, with pulleys.
