Checking Drive Belts

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Nissan Pathfinder. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: Be sure to perform when the engine is stopped.
  1. Remove air duct and resonator assembly when inspecting drive belt.
  2. Make sure that indicator (single line notch) of each auto-tensioner is within the allowable working range (between three line notches).
    NOTE:
    • Check the drive belt auto-tensioner indication when the engine is cold.
    • The indicator notch is located on the moving side of the drive belt auto-tensioner.
  3. Visually check entire belt for wear, damage or cracks.
  4. If the indicator is out of allowable working range or belt is damaged, replace the belt. Refer to "REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION ".
