@@JimmysAutoClinic I was by myself, so I removed the serpentine belt from the AC compressor, as I was under the car, holding the tension pulley with other hand.
Yeah can be nice and fun trying to get your wrench off of the tensioner with the long sleeve that it has. Usually I just leave them jammed up against something but it's hard to get the belt off in that situation.
Been dealing with jump starting my 09 X-Trail everytime I start it these past weeks. This video was exactly what I was looking for. I think my alternator is different but looks to be installed the same way (I hate the side mounted belt!). Thanks for the ChrisFix level of explanation!
If you're in Toronto I bought it from a local rebuilder tata, but any rebuilder out there that is good can rebuild a alternator for you. I would definitely recommend checking out rock auto if you can't find a good rebuilder. Will be more costly but at least you know you'll get a good product. If you're constantly having a high charge. You can check the alternator regulator circuit to see how it is wired and controlled. I'm not sure how it is done on this particular vehicle so I don't know what advice to offer you.
i dig the humour, and am grateful for the detailed video. peace on earth, man
I am in Toronto too, and will perform this today; may need to call you..! lol

Where did you buy that alternator from? I can't seem to find one that doesnt overcharge the hell out of my battery.
