2015 Altima 2.5 I used 17mm with Angle Rachet no allen wrench or nut loosening. Turning rachet clockwise releases tension. Remove old & Install new belt exactly same way around pulleys. Done
Here's some additional info for others. I needed 17mm 3/8 inch drive socket with pipe. Locking tensioner with allen wrench helps, but I found I needed to remove the allen wrench to remove old belt and put on new belt. With hex wrench in place, there was not enough slack in belt to get it on. Also, be sure to put belt on all pulleys first, and then around tensioner last.
I stripped the "grabbing" bolt on the new tensioner I got because it was aluminium, never even got it far enough to let the belt off, now my allen wrench is stuck in the 2 pin holes on the right and can't get them out, can't pull the tensioner either way from being stripped and all I can use to get in there is a pulley wrench because they made the new part with a longer grabbing bolt head so I have even less room between it and the fender smh

Thats when I stripped the pulling bolt on mine, right as I tried to pull further to release the allen wrench I had holding all the tension.
Try maybe adding some light to the video next time literally showing us nothing but darkness
Thanks for the help!
Thank you so much!
Did u do this from the top or bottom how did you turn it with the pipe or breaker bar
Good job, kid!

Good video. Would have liked to seen all the pulleys you have to wrap around
What I did before hand was to make my own diagram of the pulleys with the direction of the belt. Best to do that before you take anything apart.
@@canelodirecto unfortunately my belt came off on its own before i had a chance
@@sythja1369 I drew up the path before I changed it, I will try to post a picture if I can later when my wife come back with the vehicle
