    The torque on the lock bolts are 32 ft lbs of force for the lower bolt and 14 ft lbs of force for the upper bolt.

    Great video, Vance! Thanks to your video, I was able to change the belt on my 2012 Corolla at 155K miles. The belt original belt showed no damage, but since you made it look so easy, I figured it was time. Small correction, though.... that bottom pivot bolt is 14 mm, not 12 mm. The two bolts at the adjusting bracket are 12 mm.

    Just to say Toyota states 7 to ten millimetres deflection, up or down your choice to set correct tension. Happy mechanics.

    If you're coming up short on belt length, take a break and check the factory diagram for proper installation. Easy mistake, especially in the hot sun of Louisiana.

      Unfortunately, you may have to go to a mechanic if you can't get it loose.

    Help. Can't seem to put the belt on. The alternator is at it'd loosest position but the belt is still a bit short short. It's a correct belt. Any advice . Thanks

    • @VancesHowTo
      @VancesHowTo  Před 2 lety +2

      Double check that you've got the belt routed through the pulleys correctly. Check the video again and look how its routed. Good luck!

    • @VancesHowTo
      @VancesHowTo  Před 4 lety +5

      Your belt is probably a little too loose. Tighten it up a little bit and see if the noise goes away.
