[QUOTE="audiobaun, post: 8601007, member: 634282"] The tensioner is supposed to move back and forth all the time.Mine always makes noise when I first start it up in the mornings.the noise is from the bearings inside that may be dry,I usually spray PB Blast just behind the tensioner where the bearings are, wait a few min, then fire it back up.But, its the tensioner itself from my experience.Ive put alot of them on thinking something isnt right, but I dont think they put enough high temp grease inside where the bearings are unless its just been sitting on the shelves so long that the cheap grease they use has dried up and mounded in one spot at the bottom, is all Icould come up with.Its sealed, but that PB Blast will penetrate and get in there if you spray enough and let it set for like 5-10 min and fire it up again.It will do squeel from time to time.Drive me nuts man. I havent found anyone that sells a decent one yet.Nappa seems to work for about 6-9 months then starts squeeling,.GMs start back up in approx 3 months.Its an ongoing issue.I think that design on the pulley should have been different and should have been a recall myself. But until that happens..PB Blast for me [/QUOTE]
