How to replace the serpentine belt in the Hyundai Elantra?

Model: Hyundai Elantra MD, UD, MK 5 - Years 2010-2015
Part: V-belt

In this tutorial we can see how to replace the drive belt in the Hyundai Elantra, a simple operation but requiring good manual skills. First of all, we wait for the engine to be cold enough, then we open the hood and locate both the belt in question and the alternator. We then loosen the fixing bolt of the alternator using a 12mm socket wrench, loosen the regulator bolt as well, and loosen the belt tension by unscrewing the third indicated bolt. At this point, all that remains is to remove the old belt from the pulleys, position the replacement following the diagram, restore the tension, and tighten all the bolts.
