  • Awesome... I have a Pathfinder 96 SE...the organization is almost exact as the 2000-2004 xterra... Thanks for the video...I'm in the process of changing the same parts right now and looks exactly the same way as this video

  • @lmrproduction

    goahead its easy other guys have done it with this vdeo and if dont understand some let me know if i can help .

    also if you need copies of the original book let me know so i can post pictures as well good luck .

  • i ust posted a messege for you but for some reason i dont see it let me know if you need any help acually all the cars are about the same they all have the marks for the timemming belt , and the same parts , .

    the mechanic is right is the tensioner they may not change it when they did the job , and of cours they made the problem they new that was gonna happen soon

  • they sure it change the tensioner, the 2 seals ,and the water pump, at the same time

    this is like when you change the clutch in a car you do the clutch , the pressure plate and the trown bearing everything at the same time so no problems wil come soon .

    and this what just happened to you , they did a duty work on your car the tensioner is only $40 now will cost you more because of them here in ny that job is $1600-1800 i dont know where you are but money is money

  • I noticed the marks on the drivers side dont match up with the belt. Mine is the same way. Does that really matter?

  • if you bought a after market timming belt it wont fit the marks .

    you gonna have to start with the passenger side mark with the one at the bottom , and wont be left to right now dont forget only if you have a after market belt . let me know how it works

    if dont understand i ll give my number via email

see all

  • @y2locote hey man just watched your vid in your opinion....i have a 2003 xterra what mileage should i replace the timing belt man??? thank you

  • Great video! Thank you!

  • Can you please explain how did you remove old camshaft seals and put new ones. L left you same message on another video just in case you missed that one. Please explain the steps.

  • For the tensioner it has a spring that rests on left u can't miss it really... The tension is always at o about 530 where the t handle hole is...just make sure there is about a 45 angle deflection on all three sides... Or tighter... And for the person with the cam bolt problem leave the belt on then loosen them...it's easier thy way... Peace

  • Good job!

    Can you describe/list the steps when installing and adjusting the timing belt tensioner?

  • Thank you very much for these videos, plain and simple. I have a 1987 Nissan 300ZX, 1990 Infiniti M30, and 2003 Nissan Xterra that all use the VG30E. This is a big help.

  • i have a 2001 nissan xterra i replaced the timing belt ,timing belt tensioner ,spring , thermostat , water pump and all the accessory belts ,the mechanic charged me $610.00 but now it is making a whining sound at lower rpm . the timing belt might be too tight ? i took it back to the mechanic and he told me to drive it couple hundred miles to let the timing belt seat that the whining sound will go away what do you think about that  ?

  • I am in progress with my 02 and I got stuck with the camshaft sprocket. I can't seem to get it loose. I didn't know I was not suppose to rotate them separately. Do you think I damage my valves..

  • 1999 nissan quest same thing thank you very much
