Thanks for the tutorial, I couldnt have done it without your video. I have to add that getting the engine mount to lineup when lifting the engine at the end was a foooking nightmare. I had to use two crow bars and operate the jack at the same time to get it done :)

Thanks man, this is the only video I could find showing how to replace the drive belt for a Yaris or just Toyota where the alternator and adjusting bolt is at the rear of the engine. They really made it hard to change the belt on this model compared to other models with tensioner pulley or alternator in the front!

How did you get on? It can be tricky. Especially if it's your first attempt

@@expressdiy6956 Not yet, I'm slowly learning how to get there! First car for me so I'm just learning how to jack it up and how to change the tire yesterday. The wheel was rust-welded on so I had to drive a little back and forth to pop it. When I finally got the wheel off I could see the alternator pivot screw. However I can't figure out how I should reach the motor mount screw underneath. Do you unscrew it from the top with an extension or from below under the car? What kind of extension did you use? My car also has those plastic shields to protect the engine from the side and underneath, haven't figured out how to remove those yet.

@@reactnativetutorial651 if you wanna reach the bottom engine mount screw, you have to remove the wheel. Then remove the plastic covers that you stated. They have screws that hold it together. Some screws and some clips. I'm sure you can find a video on how to remove it . So what I used to reach the bottom nut was a ratchet and longest extension I had . And a long 14mm socket . BE CAREFUL you dont round the nut.

After much fiddling, I found the order the belt is installed from the top makes a big difference. First install it on the two large bottom pulleys. They are the hardest to reach. Next, keeping tension of the belt so it doesn't slip off those pulleys, wrap the belt around the small alternator pulley at the top. All that remains is to slide the belt around the water pump pulley beneath the alternator pulley. Since that one doesn't have a v-notch, you can force it in place more easily that the others. Then tighten up the belt with the alternator.

Thanks to your video, I successfuly changed belt on my brother's car. Thank you I had tough time getting the engine mount to meet the engine, so be prepared with patience and maybe a second lift or another helping person. I worked it myself with no additional lift. Also, loosen up the long tensioning bolt already before removing the larger bolt (but the larger bult MUST be loosened up) . That loosenes the alternator and makes installation of the new belt easier.

I unbolted the three bolts between the engine mount and car body and jacked the engine up and juggled the belt under the mount .. slightly easier ? But thanks , good video I might have to change it in another 23 years😂
