Today a friend and I tackled the Serpentine Belt. First off got an awesome deal on the belt when I ordered my spark plugs from Advanced Auto Parts. The DIY was extremely helpful. Only notes I would add would make sure that the 1/2 breaker bar you are using isnt to thick. The one we started using was to thick and it wouldnt work. It kept hitting a sensor on the stock fans. One last thing to do next week... the Tune up! Then the Mods will start coming.

You guys have been awesome with all the help!

 

Can you link the DIY? I need to tackle this soon too. Dealer wants ridiculous prices for this service. I'd rather pick up the belt and install it myself if it's not too difficult.

 

Thanks for posting the link! Yeah its really easy though. Im looking forward to the tune up. Been thinking about seafoaming the motor considering the mileage too, but I keep going back and forth on it. I know its safe, but these cars don't seem to have a ton of carbon buildup!

 

80k, Its really high for an 08 but I knew the previous owner and he was maticulous about maintance and the car.

 

Thanks for the link!
