Replacing Serpentine Belt / AC Belt & Pulley On 2020 Chevy Silverado.!!
In this video, I’ll be showing you how to replace the drive belt, idler pulley, and the AC belt. I use the special tool for the AC belt, but couldn’t get it to work for the serpentine belt so I end up doing a trick, using zip ties and turning the engine on for a second so it slips right on. This model truck doesn’t have a tensioner pulley so it is very difficult to put on the stretch belt, but this is how it worked for me and hopefully it works for you!

Thank you for the video. I spent $250 on gm parts, was quoted $300 to $450 for the labor at chevy dealer. Changed in about an hour after watching your video. Thank you once again.

I just changed both belts and the Idler pulley on my 2019 AT4 6.2, she was screaming hard. I have no idea why it was so difficult for you to get the Serpentine belt on. I am by no means a mechanic other than KZread videos. First off there is no need for the extra tool don't waste your money just use zip ties instead. I used 4 zip ties to get the AC belt on and 5 zip ties to get the Serpentine. I used a long breaker bar with a 24mm socket to turn the crank shaft no problem from underneath (if you jack the truck up for those of us without a lift it's way easier). Took me longer to guide the belt and zip tie it down than to turn the belts on. I spent a good bit of time cleaning the belt residue off the Alternator pulley (don't forget to do that). If you run into zero issues this is a 30min job max. I called GM to see what they would charge. Their $485.00 job cost me $65.00. But thank you for starting me in the right direction with your video.

Hey man I install the belt and pulley by turning the bottom wheel with ratchet where zip ties go, when I put everything back from air manifold I notice a puff sound coming out of it every time I turn off truck. Is that sound normal? Idk if I messed up timming by doing it by hand

Just did both belts on mine a few days ago. Got them out of the way when i replaced my 170amp alternator with a 220 amp oem had to do high amp upgraded junction block with 250 amp fuse snow plow 200 amp fuse kit along with starter alternator cable for 220 amp load . Now if i have any audio or accessories they just go straight in the junction box with a oem fuse no aftermarket fuse holder needed

I’m assuming transmisión was shifted into neutral to be able to turn the crank over?

Ok so the tool does work you just have to put the belt on turn it til it gets tight on the tool and then put your zip ties on the turn it slow took me 20 mins

I already changed my transmission fluid it did fix any problems I had. I can hear that I have a stock lifter as well. It’s gone away after putting seafoam in the motor but I have a serpentine belt I’ll be replacing this weekend and I believe an exhaust leak did I mention this truck only has 65,000 miles what the fuck Chevy
How often should these belts and pulley be replaced
