Can someone give me a link to a writeup on changing the main belt and the power steering belt?
Someone just posted directions the other day but I can't find it.
I'm getting squealing when turning the wheel in parking situations. Maybe its just loose but the car has 180k miles so I should just do them.
Fluid level is fine.

By the way, does searching work anymore? I haven't been able to do it for a long time now but haven't figured out why.

 

the main belt is really really easy...Get a 14mm with extension and loosed the belt tightening pulley (or whatever they call it) Once loose...slide the belt off..put new one on...retighten pulley.

U should invest in a Hayne's Manual or something of the such

 

yeah, i have a haynes but it has mysteriously vanished.
so i thought i would ask on here quick so i still have a chance of getting it done today if i can't find it.

i remember whoever posted directions said to cut the power steering belt and just force the new one on. not 100% sure though if thats what was said.

i also remember them warning not to do something or it could mess everything up. don't remember what it was though so i'm a little nervous.

First couple steps should get you going, the other tensioner bolt is to be done from underneath the car.
