Never changed a serpentine belt, but wondering if it's within my range of limited mechanical ability. I change my own oil and spark plugs and wires, but never tried a serpentine belt. Mine has a few cracks in it, and would like some instruction from the friendly folks on here. Did a search but found no results. Thanks in advance.
Easy change
1) remove the plastic stuff in the way. Use 9 mm socket
2) take a picture of the belt
3) use a socket wrench (15mm?) on a long 3/4 drive. Put it on the tensioner pull left.
4) the belt comes off
5) put the belt on, use socket driver to hold in place near the tensioner
6) pull the wrench slide the belt onto the pulley
7) put the plastic stuff back.
Here is a picture for right brain people
