The belt will go on if I remove the tensioner cylinder, but then I cannot get the cylinder back on. My Haynes book does not describe parts or method clear and illistrations are poor or lacking.

you took the cylinder off? no need to do that. this has a hydraulic tensioner. constant pressure on it would of collapsed it and you could of changed the belt. i honestly don't know how to put it back on, i never had the need to take one off. i can check monday when i get back to my shop.

I understand. You have a split belt system. One for the A/C and another for the other accessory systems. I attached the processes for both to be replaced. Let me know if you have other questions on this. Thanks

Hi my serpentine belt broke but I got it replaced. All pulleys seem to be rotating (nothing froze up) but headed to town and it started running hot I've never had any radiator problems or anything and was wondering what could cause this. Too broke to take it to a shop

Engine Performance problem
2002 Toyota Camry 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 100k miles
Squealing belt. How do I replace? Just loosen tensioner and replace? Or loosen 2 or 3 bolts, then crank on key tensioner bolt to loosen and remove the belt?
It is hard to see exactly what is needed. What are the torques of the related bolts?

Actually, the cast tensioner assembly is located forward of the diagram shown . The left hand bolt, 14mm, must be loosened and then the right hand “boltâ€, 17mm or 19mm, that is part of the casting can be pulled as shown to release the spring tension. It is easier to slide the belt off the tensioner pulley than where shown.

Using my Haynes manaul I am finsdng it impossible to both locate and or identify how to loosen the drivebelt to replace it. There are no adjustment screws on the alternator nor is there a flioating tension arm to lock onto. How is this belt changed?

To replace the belt you need to release the tension on the automatic belt tensioner

The belt broke and I do not know the configuration to replace it. There is not a diagram in the owners manual. Any idea where to get the configuration.

I am about to have my timing belt changed, and have been advised to replace the water pump at the same time. Is there anything else that should be changed while the timing belt and water pump are being done.

Hi there,
Normaly there is no reason to replace anything else, the water pump is not nornaly changed but if it has been there for some time it's not a bad idea. Just check that there is on oil in side the timing belt cover if so the Cam shaft seal and the front crank shaft seal should be replaced, also check the condition of the drive belts and replace any that that are suspect.

Suggested Repair
Release tension with the automatic hydraulic belt tensioner and route the new belt using the correct diagram; do not remove the tensioner cylinder. Some 2002 Camrys use a split belt system, so confirm whether the A/C has a separate belt and match the routing to the engine.
Conversation Summary
The owner of a 2002 Toyota Camry asked how to replace the serpentine belt and requested a routing diagram. Experts provided diagrams and said to release the automatic hydraulic tensioner rather than remove the tensioner cylinder. Later replies noted that some Camrys have separate A/C and accessory belts and that the belt can be changed in a driveway. Unrelated later posts about overheating, a 2008 belt number, and timing-belt service were not part of the original repair advice.
