How difficult is it to change the serpentine belt?
I'm going to need to do it soon, is there anything I should watch out for?
Thanks everyone!

Be patient, have a long 1/2” breaker bar for the tensioner, and if I recall correctly the balancer pulley is very close to the ac compressor pulley and you have to (carefully) jam the belt in there somewhere. Have a screenshot pulled up of the belt routing to reference and you should get er done.Originally Posted by CMB

Not necessary if just doing the belt
It's not bad, if you can have someone that knows the concept help you or hold the breaker bar for the tensioner it'll go quickly. As stated, just be patient.
