Another thought on belt system

Bee, just read your post of a couple days ago. I had problems with my belt this spring when it got warm. The tensioner was weak, so when the AC kicked in it caused the belt to bounce, and eventually schred and pop off. It was a new belt in the Fall. I also replaced the idler and tensioner pulleys. Bought just the tensioner shock/spring from eEuroparts for $80. Better than $150 from the dealer. Keep in mind if you have further problems with the belt. Actually, if you do, you should be able to get the dealer to throw in the labor. He should recognize a weak tensioner.
Am assuming that you don't do much wrenching on your car. If you wanted to, this is not too bad a job. Plan to spend at least 1/2 day, and check Quasi's website for great directions. Doing the belt and idler cost me $60.
