For the serpentine belt, to put it on the tensioner pulley at the end, you want to have it resting on the alternator pulley because if you do it resting on the tensioner pulley and try to get it on to the alternator, the wrench will get in the way of it.

I'm sure you've been told before, but your video was the best on you tube illustrating how to make this repair!
Really appreciate that! Watched all the videos made on this service and tried to combine them all to give the best content possible 👌
Agreed 💯
This is the fourth video I have seen on this procedure. No one else took off the bottom plastic cover so as to guide the belt onto the lower pulleys. I don't know how it is possible to do the job only from the top. The videos that did it only from the top did not show how they did it. Not surprised as they must have spent hours getting it done. Great job with this video. A detailed video that left nothing out. Thanks.
Thanks for appreciating the process! The quickest way isn't always the fastest way 🚄
As you’ve been told already, this was the best video on this and I watched it while doing my replacement. Took me less than and hour. Longest thing was to Jack up, remove passenger tire and set on Jack stands. The removal of the tire made this job easy! Great video and I’m now subscribed, Thank you.
You're too kind thanks for taking the time to reach out
I will be knocking this out soon. Thanks for the video. Wish me luck!
Let's goooo Roy
You got this
Ridiculously thorough! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
@@josephbriceno2799 Didn't want to miss any steps for y'all 🙏
Bro! Glad my tip helped you out! I’ve been telling everyone the same. Remove the front passenger wheel and it’ll save you so much time changing out that belt or even changing out that pulley. Great video!
Thanks! In my original video I made last year I removed the wheel but that video didn't come out good so I never uploaded it because the quality wasn't as great. There is the extended Hook tool that makes putting the belt on easier but I'd rather work with more space than get frustrated because that was my initial experience. Thanks for checking mine out 👍
@@Striker50_ oh! Then it’s something you already knew! My bad. Video was detailed either way. Keep going brother!
@@jmc224 A-ok the more people that know there's an optional method the better 🙏
You still have your Accord?
@@Striker50_ yessir I do actually. However, will be selling it soon as I am going to be picking up a family member’s ‘17 Pilot. It’s been great, but need to move on. The 9th gen accords gave me plenty of experience though.
@@jmc224 That's awesome and you can't go wrong with all that space
You are very detailed about how you do it. Thank you for uploading this VDO🙏
Thank you hope it was helpful
Great job, got do one tomorrow, my confidence boost watching your video!
Nice! Step by step and you'll be done in no time
Great video!!!
This is the one I was looking for
@@ivarub1017 Glad you found it 🙏🙏🙏
Wish I made it a little shorter but I wanted to cover everything
@@Striker50_
When the video is good will never be too long

Pretty sure I had this job snake bit from the get go… While changing my friends serp, the tensioner SHEERED at that 19mm/17mm bolt/dog/protrusion. I didn’t do the repair prior, my guess is the belt was replaced at 20k or 30k, the car has 48k (miles) now but sits out doors unsheltered so the drive belt was just totally whooped.
I have never had that happen before, quite a learning experience! I’ll be making a tool specifically so this never happens again. Very frustrating!
REPLACE OEM WITH OEM.
Interesting I've never heard of them giving out that quickly
Great video! Thank you.
Happy to be of service 🙏
Very very nice explaining video of serpentine replacement and functionality too. Nice work,no comparison with your video ❤❤❤
Thanks! I learned after the first time 🤞
Thanks for making this video!
Hope it helped 🙏
If possible, I always try to get Honda OEM parts. There are tons of great aftermarket parts as well, but I think Honda’s parts are the best.
Yup that's why I went with OEM parts here after the aftermarket one giving out so quick
What an wonderful video
Thank you hope it helped!
Great great video, very well explained, this kind of video will make your job a lot easier. Thank you!
Thanks for the praise 🙏
Yeah all of the videos I found on this service would cut out steps which lead me to be frustrated the first time I did this service since the belt kept falling off.
Decided to do the best I can to show everything
Good video.
Thanks 👌 it took me a while to get everything right
Moral of the story, go OEM.
Yup, or a really good aftermarket that is known
Dang good video💯
Thanks! I know how it could be a pain dealing with this
@@Striker50_ got a question for you. I changed the serpentine belt and it started smoking. Yes it was aligned correctly. Do you know what the problem could be?
@@Striker50_ I figured out my water pump seized up. You don't happen to have a video on that do you?
I don't unfortunately, but it would be similar steps by removing the serpentine belt to gain access, and realistically, I think the serpentine belt is the most annoying part of this whole thing@@MrSamiam2310
I was going to say, if it's aligned, something has to be causing friction for the smoke to happen and you solved it with the AC being seized up. @@MrSamiam2310
Exactly the same advice I was given to me when getting my Valve Cover Gasket done it was Pep Boys so they did that and the tensioner but sound didn't go away so I tooked it to another Pep Boys and they said it's the tensioner again which my warranty covers so I'll see how it goes
Pep Boys is ok, but I stopped going after my wheel almost flew off on the freeway because they didn't tighten it.
One of the things is that they may not replace the proper pulley, they may have assumed it was the tensioner one which is why it continued making the noise. I would say it is an aftermarket one that failed quicker, but it would have at least been quiet for a while before it started to make noises again
@@Striker50_ that's what I was told they put a aftermarket pulley on it the noise never stopped I had to go to upper management this is my last time also
Strange. At the very least they should confirm the diagnosis before adding the part. But yeah companies like that dont train their staff well@@meoutthispiece9015
Thanks for the video. Mine only makes this sound after a cold start. Engine starts and a few seconds later the sound starts. Then it stops after 3-5 seconds. I am due to change it. Honda thinks its the starter and the fly wheel issue. Would the started make a similar noise?
You're welcome. The starter makes a different noise I've replaced it twice. If you're hearing that whining noise it should be continuous. Do you live in a really cold area?
@@Striker50_ yeah. I'm up in Ontario Canada. We had a couple cold nights in the minus and it's been warmer with rain last several days. It started with the cold weather and it seems to be getting progressively longer. It does sound like it's coming from the left side of the engine but I could be wrong. The belt is squicking loudly though until the car is driving a good 20-30 minutes on the hwy. So I know it needs to be replaced along with the timing belt. About 200k km or 130k miles. Not sure what else it would be.
@@NikosRentas Man it's COLD cold up there. This Accord uses a timing chain, but one noise I experience at start up is in relation to the VTC actuator. It goes away after about a 1/2 second for me. There are some videos on it and is pretty common with Honda
@@Striker50_ lol yeah it will get cold next month and February. Like cold cold lol. I have a 2014 accord coupe V6. It's the timing belt version before they switch to chain. Il check the VTC actuator but since I'm changing the belt at least we will know if it fixes it.
@@NikosRentas yeah, do update me on the results
How would i know if the issue is serpentine belt tensioner or chain tensioner? Im having a rough idle and whining sound and other noises
The tensioner pulley will make noise as you step on the gas
The chain tensioner only makes noise on startup for like 1 second
Good video well detail just got a bit concerned when you turned the car on and the radiator reservoir was leaning on the converter. Hopefully engine didnt warm up enough to melt it a bit.
Good call, the engine would have to be running for a few minutes to get hot enough to do that
Is it easier replacing just black roller and belt?
Doesn't make a difference actually. It would be one extra step removing the roller, then you would have to know the torque specs for that part
Do you need to have the riveting tool or can you use something else?
What do you mean by riveting tool? The ratchet?
No the tool to take out the covers by the tire when removing the wheel
@@saulgoodmanj you could use a butter knife , scissors, or a flathead 🪛
Where did you order your OEM parts for the Honda?
The tensioner pulley is on ebay, the belt is on my amazon storefront on the link
OK, thank you I’m going to check it out now
good video brother, very well explained, I have that same noise in my honda accord 2017, the curious thing is that it only has (62,000 miles), but well, this same weekend I will change the tensioner, thanks for the video, regards
Nice! Hope this can help you take care of that. You going to go with OEM parts?
Owsemone video. Very well explained and attention to details. I have done it before on my Honda CR-V 2015.. I just needed the torque specification of the two bolts 17Ft-lbs and 41ft-lbs for the 12 mm bolts. Great video. Thanks
@@ricardomarmol1257 👍 As long as it's not torqued insane you should be good
Did you notice your car’s performance improve? ie: acceleration, gas mileage
I noticed the most MPG improvement when I adjusted my valves and cleaned my throttle body. I just got 38.2 MPGs driving from Ventura to Glendale with some hills in Calabasas. Granted I was going around 60-65 but that's the highest I've ever gotten
@@Striker50_ did you end up taking your car to a shop for valve adjustment? If not, I as it an easy job?
Hey, yes I did. I was going to make a video replacing the valve cover gasket, but found out Honda valves don't self-adjust and was about 50,000 mi. over the recommended service. You need these little spacers that look like metal popsicle sticks, and while I was there, I had the injectors cleaned as well. I found a guy here in LA that specializes in Japanese cars and is about half the price from everyone else. I swing by when something is a bit out of my abilities @@damntomato6451
@@Striker50_ nice to hear this , where is this place I would like to get my injectors clean on my 2014 Honda accord sport ..
