IF only every youtube channel took notes of this youtube channel. Straight to the point. No 5 minute intro, talking about you're divorce, etc.

I just have one constructive tip for you that i'm sure everyone would agree with. Take the music out of the video! Keep up the great work! 👍

Was having electronic power steering issue … could not source the issue, change alternator and battery and it still was bad…changed belt, tensioner bracket and idler pulley and it’s perfect now 🙏🏾

This can also cause misfires or engine knock if there's not enough voltage going through the system due to not enough tension on the drivebelt.

A 2012 escape XLT 4cyl.If you hear a clicking noise when in reverse, it's your tensioner.Check the belt and replace tensioner and belt

[sarahrodriguez]

Do I need to replace the tensioner assembly or just the parts that go to it? Trying to save money but if it’s necessary I’ll replace the entire assembly

[drock]

Any cures for an idler pulley that has a bolt that continuously breaks?

[jarredallen]

So if it’s none of those, what would it be? Brand new tensioner no other piece of equipment is shaking like it is or has any vibration.

My problem started recently after putting on a new belt. OEM was bando, Japanese belt. But I put a Goodyear belt that cost half the price. It squeaks a little when cold and slips when hot and accelerating or starting car. It's a quick jump. It only slips when accelerating but once it picks up steam it doesn't slip at all.

2004 acura tl signs of bad tensioner : loud noise at cold start?

[oluwashinayominifemi]

Wow this the video i needed all this while

[iii-anxiety-iii]

I’m really hoping this could help me with my problem I have 08 Lancer manual transmission and every time when I go turn on the car it’s like the belt just slips off

[roadstar]

Mine moves like the one in this video..also makes vibration and horrible noise...and also makes belt flap around even though belt has plenty of tension
..I thought it was compressor, then water pump and a few other things..just never had this issue on a car before...

[hottraxx]

I think mines just shreds the alternor belt😢

[juanromero]

Will a bad tensioner on a 93 Chevy 1500 make a tapping knocking noise

[alexmurray]
