Today we will be showing you how we replaced the serpentine belts on our 2002 Nissan Pathfinder LX version 4 wheel drive. I believe the Nissan Pathfinders from 2001-2004 have the same belts. We bought the replacement belts online. We advise that you wear safety goggles and be careful when working under the car. We hope these tips will help you as you replace the belts. If you have any questions, leave comments below and we would love to answer them as you replace your belts. We cannot be held responsible for any problems during your repairs and cannot guarantee that this fixes your problems. Take caution and wear appropriate safety gear. If you do not have experience with this type of project, please seek help from a professional.

Got a 2001 Pathfinder that I'm replacing a leaky radiator and Thermostat in. Noticed the belts also need replacing and this video helped. It sure is a lot easier to do with the radiator and fan cowling removed which was good for me! Thanks for the vid!
Seems like a pain in the ass just to get the belt off lol. Tight spaces indeed.
My Dodge you literally only had to release the tension on the tensioner and it popped right off.
Thanks for the video though guys I appreciate it.
How would you find the tensioner on a nissan patrol diesel automatic 2008
Thank you for posting this, trying to hack my way through it I missed the step where I had to loosen the pulley first. Now I get it, cheers.
Hello, thank you for sharing this video. Is this a VQ35 engine?
May I suggest a flashlight.
Is the tensioner the same as the idler pulley ?
Changed my alternator and used some belt that's was on it before never had any squeaks but now it squeaks super loud right on start up and doesn't stop I'm thinking I dont have the tension right how can I best guess the stock tightness
Great video guys! Working in tight spaces ……video is perfect.
