How do you replace the serpentine belt? We have the diagram, but the motor mount is within the belt's orbital and there appears to be no way to go around it without removing the mortor mount. Is this a manufacterer's method to force you to come in for repair? We purchased the online repair manual but all it gives you is the routing diagram, which we already had.
