In detail: do-it-yourself car repair Nissan note from a real master for the site my.housecope.com.

And so the first test drive of the car for a long distance.

Before the trip, I specially stopped to diagnose the chassis, the verdict was a right ball joint for replacement, everything else is normal and corresponds to the mileage (12,000 km at the time of diagnosis). Because the car suffered an accident in Japan on the right side, the consequences may have affected the ball. The price of the spare part is 745 rubles (manufacturer “555” - SBN-332). Replacement 1500 rubles.

It is a pleasure to drive this car for a long distance. There are enough dynamics on the track, briskly for overtaking. The optimal speed is 120-130 km / h, over 130 km / h the fuel consumption increases sharply (up to 9 liters per 100 km), and at a speed of over 140 km / h, there is strong vibration in the cabin, it is hard for the car to drive, it is very strongly felt.

In order to tighten the generator belt on the Nissan Note, you need to: raise the car on a jack, remove the wheel, unscrew and remove the fender liner (it is held on 3 screws from the bottom and 3 clips). Now we find the tension roller and loosen the fastening nut. Behind the tensioner roller there is a bolt (key for 13), and it must be tightened to tighten the belt.

There are 2 ways to get to the tensioner pulley bolt. It is necessary to remove the radiator grill, which rests on clips from above, 2 latches at the edges of the headlights, and many latches at the bottom of the grille (they snap off by pressing the middle down and pulling the grille towards you). Next, you still need to remove 2 pistons from the plastic frame at the headlight, now you can get to the bolt.

The second method is easier, but not more convenient. From the side of the removed wheel arch liner we put our hand behind the roller, feel and put the key on the bolt, and slowly twist it.

Check the adjustment by pressing your finger on the belt from below, the deflection of the old belt is 4.8-5.3 mm, the new one is 4.2-4.5 mm. If it is not possible to determine by eye, you can use the steelyard. After tensioning the belt, we tighten the tensioner roller nut and assemble everything in the reverse order.
