So I get home, Pop the hood and VOILA! My serpentine belt was loose -.- I guess my Non res'd F.I cbe and T.p were too much for it haha jk jk well at least I know what the problem is but Phew! What a scare :O

Ummm guys....my belt didn't unsnao this pully came off the one on top of the crankshaft pulley. I tightened it back in and I'm putting the belt back as we speakhttps://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.n...50799136_o.jpg

The pulley itself came off? Weird.

:tup: make sense.

Dude you and me both my pops even told wtf did you do! Well we tighten it back and we managed to put the belt back on but our wrench feel down and now we have that problem on hand lmao will post back. . .

:tup:

I tighten the pulley back and snapped back the belt but nothing it made a horrible screeching sound and smoke starting coming out where the band was rubbing on that pulley. I'm just gonna take it to the dealer or.

A horrible day today blahh!

Sounds like the pulley isn't turning. Is the bearing in it seized? If it is, it's possible that it could have unscrewed itself.

Here's how the belts supposed to be installed

@chuck: yes man thats exactly it! @Trips:the pulley that Untightened in the one on the top roght from #3 (crankshaft pulley)...this is more of a dealers problem yes?:yum: Becausr I haven't messed with those things nor tried installing a pulley kit.

It's a dealer problem if you're still under warranty. If not, I can't imagine that the pulley is too expensive. If you're DIYing it, go ahead and replace the belt too. It's a wear item, and you just took some life off of it.

Warranty is 100k miles correct?

Maybe if you bought an extended one. From memory, powertrain is 5 yrs/60k miles.

Oh ok then lets see what happens ill keep you guys posted, this is new to me as is the FIRST problem I ever encountered with my Z in the past 3 yrs lmao xD
