Changed Serp Belt

Hi all. Changed my Serpentine Belt today. On my 2008 Malibu 2.4. It wasnt hard. Very tight getting in there. Had to loosen the Splash Shields on the passenger side. Already had the tire off from Rotating the tires. Used a 3/8" Drive long ratchet to push back the tensioner. Installed a GoodYear Gatorback # 4050405. Sorry I dont have any pics. Had to Remove about 15 Plastic "Trees" to loosen the splash shields. And hang them out of the way.

Also did an oil change as well.

Next project? Possibly the Spark Plugs.

Sorry, I forgot to mention the 2 screws. Holding the forward splash shield.

No, There nothing wrong with it. Just a little dry. Not cracked. Thought I heard some chirping back awhile ago. I work 2 jobs and cant afford a break down.
