I work for Nissan, and I just remove the ac compressor out of the way with the ac lines still attached to the compressor,lower the front of the sub frame a bit and remove the alternator
The worse part is putting the long bolt back in...
That 14mm bolt that is under the alternator was rusted in my case and did not want to come off. We are stuck with that bolt not wanting to turn after it did just a lite bit.
I think u don’t have to take out the radiator just take out the fan but I understand just more room
For better ease of removing and installing the radiator remove both radiator hoses from the radiator. To save time leave the radiator in, and dislodge the ac compressor with the lines connected, then lower the front subframe and extract the alternator.
Could Nissan have made this any more difficult?!?!?!? On the 2.5 it’s EASY!
How long did the entire job take?
I found it was easier to remove the lower radiator hose when I was under the car. I replaced my radiator and fan assembly about a month ago.
Fml looks like I got my job cut out for me

Thank you for this very detailed and informative video. I had to change out the alternator and the belt tensioner on my 2005 Nissan Altima SE 3.5L, and no doubt about it, I could not have done it without your video. I cannot express how much I appreciate your help and thorough instructions. You saved me a lot of money. Thanks again.
Just did this, your vid was a HUGE help. Thank you. For all that wonder why you left the bottom hose on rad, it serves 2 purposes, 1. keeps the remaining coolant from leaking everywhere and 2. give room to handle the end of the alternator when starting bolts. DON'T ASK ME HOW I KNOW. Wish I had at least pulled it off the car for the clearance. OOPS, told on myself.
Literally sent all evening trying to do this, got everything except for that pulley and belt tensioner. This car is a pain in the ass to work on
Thank you so much man your video was spot-on not only was it easy to follow I was able to get the exact tools that I needed before the job so no sudden trips to AutoZone. I just wanted to point out two things that I think could help everybody that's about to do this job: 1) after you reinstall the radiator recheck your main alternator electrical connector that's in the front. Even though I triple checked that I snapped it in when I installed the alternator it came undone when trying to jiggle the radiator back into the front of the car. The big hose really bangs around all the electrical connections when you're reinstalling the radiator. So my alternator was only running about 50% and since I was sure that I clipped it in earlier I thought for sure there was something wrong with my alternator. As soon as I clicked it back in all the way alternator worked awesome perfectly at 14.2-4 volts while running . 2) after you reinstall everything and turn on the car when you turn your thermostat to hot and turn on the heater if the fan is only blowing medium but you cool air you need to rev your engine several times. I had to do this in order for the fluids 2 get up to the heater core and start blowing out hot air. I could literally hear the fluids swishing around right behind my radio where the heater core is and that took care of everything . they must have gotten trapped for When I close the hoses at the start of the repair but just revving a few times cleared it in the heater was awesome. especially since I live in the Northeast and it's 15 degrees right now.

This, by far, is the best video I’ve seen regarding this complicated fix. Thank you, and keep up the good work!
