In this video I go over in detail how to change the serpentine and A/C accessory belt on a Nissan 350Z (VQ35DE). Hopefully this helps you if you have a worn belt or some squeaking like I had.
This has got to be the best mechanic video I have ever seen. Not tons of wasted time showing us tools and unnecessary crap but just got right to it. No stupid irritating background music. Best one yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!... thanks
I just completed my project. Took 45 minutes. This video was perfect. I had a quick squeal then went away. I tightened the tension on the belts and the squeal went away. Thanks man.
Random question mr. sir, how would one takeoff the AC tensioner pulley to replace it along with belt, only doing the ac side, need to change out acc pulley, which one of those bolts or both do it take off
One other question-why would you need to loosen the holding nuts on the pulleys? I replaced the belts on mine quite a few years ago and don’t recall doing that.
Did you have nonstop squeaking or did your car only squeal during a cold start? My 350 only squeals during the cold start but goes away completely after a few seconds and doesn’t squeal at all when it’s warmed up. Trying to figure out if I need a pulley somewhere or if I just need belts. Great video
@@Luv-dq5th yes I changed my belts a few weeks ago and the squealing stopped. I figured it was the belts to begin with because a bad pully will constantly make noise whereas mine would only do it on a cold start. My belts were probably 7 years old so it was time. The hot dry summers in Vegas destroy anything rubber pretty quick.
I just tried to do this, there is absolutely no room to fit any tools, I’ll have to remove my fan!!! Anyone know why this would be happening? It’s pissing me off!
@@therealjessescheel 350z idk why but yea it’s all stock😂 and for some reason it just won’t fit, I guess I’ll go out and get all 3/8 in tools, but idk if those will even fit.
I would say try messing with the tension first. Your belts may be a little loose if they’re squeaking on deceleration. Also make sure there’s no oil or grease on them.
