Replacing a Serpentine Belt - EricTheCarGuy
Replacing a Serpentine Belt - EricTheCarGuy
I've had more than one request for this, the other day I had one come in and was happy to make the video for it. This is a fairly easy one compared to some that I have had to deal with, just work smart and have the right tools and you will be fine. Remember the longer the tool the better the leverage and that you should check to make sure you have the correct belt before you try and install it.

02 Saturn SC2 Crappy Idle Noise, Drive Belt or Timing Chain?
This car runs smoothly and has super high MPG (40 on clear highway).
The only problem is this crappy idle noise. When the car warmed up and idle drops to 800, one can hear it. When you drive it and engines speeds up, it is gone. I could only hear it when the engine is between 800 and 1000.
Opening up the hood the noise is from around the drive belt. Not sure if it is from the drive belt or timing chain. Any idea? Thanks!
