I can't even get a socket and ratchet in the 2012 I'm working on. The fender wall is in the way. The new pulley bolt is rounding out, too. I've never had so much trouble with what should be a simple job.

I noticed the narrator said to turn the belt tensioner counterclockwise. It should actually be clockwise as seen in the video.
Just wanting to clarify
