Spotted it tonight when I got home from work. That squeaky plastic bearing sound clued me in.
Anyway, I am going to pick up a new one soon, but need to know if I should just purchase the pulley, or if it would be smarter to get the entire tensioner assembly?
The car is at about 45,000 miles
Current pulley squeaks and is wobbling side to side quite a bit. belt is not slipping though.
I would do the whole assembly myself depending on price. Only because something "else" is potentially wrong to have caused the bearing to fail.
Ok. It's only a $10 dollar difference so I will go for it. Thanks.
Got the new tensioner on today with help from a friend. Pain in the A double dolllar. The new one is all metal too unlike that plastic thing.
nice, sounds like it is a better part!
It's gates such are pretty decent parts. Got it at oreilly auto parts for a little over 30 bucks.
yeah gates seems to be a decent part maker, not a bad price at all
you wouldnt happen to have the part number on that would you?
Nope sorry. I went in and asked for it by the part name. A search on the website should reveal it.
