Decent video except not properly showing belt tensioner/removal/replacement of serpentine belt. It does not happen that easily! I also prefer getting the OEM alternator rebuilt at a local shop if possible, as a far better alternative to buying an unknown quality rebuilt.
Correction: You can take the alternator off yourself easily by removing top bolt and rotating down. the belt will come off without damage. But putting the belt back on is more difficult. That requires one person below with tensioner and belt already on top, or 2 better yet people: One below on tensioner and one above making sure the belt is on correctly. Either way, someone has to be on the tensioner below (14mm box wrench only, sockets won't fit its too thin). The longer the wrench the better, you will have to apply pressure from below and its tight. I purchased a very thin Craftsman tensioner tool (fits sockets) won't fit on tensioner. The frame to tensioner bolt access on pulley, its very narrow, will only fit an 14mm open end wrench or preferably a box wrench! Again you won't be able to get a socket on this plus a wrench into the socket!
Best how to do video there is only suggestion I would add is showing how to release the tension from the tensioner but that’s super easy to locate and can also easily UA-cam another video of where to locate the tensioner and how to release the tension other than that 10/10 video 👍🏽
The video was helpful but we all missed the part about replacing the belt . So there is an idler as in all vehicles today that is in a really tight place below just to the left almost center a 14 mil bolt Note it is in a very tight spot for guys with big hands Thanks for the video
Is 1k usd for this repair accurate? I am curious how much you should of charged for this specific job. Perhaps they charged me an extra 500$ because of the rust.
😒 the majority of the people complaining about a belt removal.... if you can't Google that the same way that you searched for this video... then you don't need to be working on your POS Nissan in the first place.

This is helpful. Thanks! Just replaced my alternator on my Altima. Removal is the hardest part, belt is not too bad, just annoying.

What kind of informative video is this? Like everyone else has said, how could you ignore the step of how to remove the serpentine belt?
Awesome video! Didn't take as long as I thought it would.
Love the video what's the easiest way to remove the belt off the alternator

How do you take the tension off belt
He had problems with the belt that was probably embarrassing so he didn’t upload it. I’m going through the same thing right now.
So do you need to use a jack stand for this change out?
Is this the same for the 3.5
The mechanic changed the alternator for me and the next day AC doesn’t work ? Do you have any suggestions what to check ?
thanks for skipping the entire 1st part were you have to loosen the tensioner to get the belt off dmb asssss
Bruh why u didnt show the belt temsiomer smmh
The belt tension? Wow car won't start because belt 😂
Yea no belt remover coverage made it look easy😂
Great video
Interesting how this was a 10 minute video and these mechanics you take your car tell you to leave it over night. Tsk tsk tsk 🙂↔️

Why does it look like my alternator is at about a 5 degree angle. I haven't taken off old one yet.

I was going to ask no belt tensioner. But I see in the comments that people are already asking about this. SMH
Will this work for the 3.5 liter engine as well?
Why don't people post motor size on the title or anywhere
Tnx
