Im a full time mechanic. And your video taught me wonders. Tried getting the alternator out today, no luck. But tomorrow is a new day to conquer this. Knowledge is king. Thank you so very much.

humility is a great coach.. sometimes, don't focus on all the crap surrounding the component you're after.. rather, that component & it's easiest path.. and, if all else, tannerite

This worked perfectly for me. It was a tight squeeze but I was able to remove and replace the alternator with your method in about 2 hours (including belt replacement). No need to remove plenum or radiator fan. Thank you!

that's the whole idea.. get the job done with minimal risk & impact... the more you remove, the more risk of something breaking & time spent

Thank you. I did it in about two hours including returning core and getting a new alternator. About fifteen minutes to remove the bad one. Odd part was having to get new plastic clips to replace broken clips for the inner fender and upper cover. My arms did get cut a bit from the sharp edges. Much easier than removing all the other parts in other videos.

I used this video as a reference for a job I had in the shop. I found it much easier to change the alternator by removing the intake manifold and moving it off to the side. I had excellent clearance by doing so.

The problem with mines was the pulley came off, so I used locktite glue on the bolt so It never comes loose by itself again.

Thank you for the video. My belt looks to be in good condition. Is there any other way instead of removing the whole when pulling out the alternator to leave the belt there and not have to do the whole belt route again? Would I have to loosen the belt tension when pulling it off the alternator? Thank you.

I don't understand gor sure your question.. yes, you hato relieve the belt tension via the tensioner to remove the belt off the alternator to replace the alternator. Edit: I replaced the belt on this car but you can pull it up out of the way

see the video at the 6:00 mark... I explain how the mount ear is notched so you can get it out without having the bolt fully removed from the alternator.. simply slide it out till touching the frame & remove the alternator with the bottom bolt still in it.. it will clear through the notch explained at the 6:00 mark in the video

@dallascowboys9430 probably is. Loosen the bolt & see if you can get it to wiggle upward. The bushing might be tight so wiggling it will loosen it up & let the alternator come off the bottom mount ear

the video at 13:10 point, you can see how I pull the tensioner to reinstall the belt.. if the belt is on & you need to loosen the belt.. the procedure is the same... just load up (pull against the tensioner spring) the tensioner creating slack in the belt so you can remove it

Im working on a 2016 nissan versa 1.6l the bottom bolt wont come out all the way because of the pulley below the alternator blocks it.. Also mine for some damn reason or another doesn't have the notch outs like yours where the alternator will come out at an angle.. So I assume the pulley must come off and now the pulley bolt is rounded out due to not being able to get a socket on it and just trying to use a wrench. Any advice?
