jenkins 0 Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 Could be the bearing, it may not be lubricated enough Link to post Share on other sites
Scott 0 Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 was wondering what that thing was too. looks like a serpentine belt tensioner but seems not to contact the belt? Link to post Share on other sites
legvw 0 Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Yes it is the tensioner, the pulley is just to the left of the alternator pulley, just behind your air filter. Its probably the bearings in the tensioner pulley that are noisey, cheap and easy enough to fix. Link to post Share on other sites
Dan34 0 Posted February 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Yup your spot on its the bearing inside the tensioner, getting it sorted tonight! Link to post Share on other sites
bungy 2 Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 A worthwhile maint op is to grease this from time to time as it gets forgotten. Link to post Share on other sites
