Does anyone have the torque spec for the belt tensioner bolt? I replaced the belt (it was stretched per the dealer) and the tensioner seemed "notchy". Now there is a whining noise coming from it and gets worse when the AC comes on.

Going to replace but does anyone have a link to a shop manual with the info in it? Thanks.

Found the service manual. Looks like 56 ft lbs for the belt tensioner and 28 ft lbs for the idle pulleys.

Yeah, couldn't find it with first search so I found the service manual on another site. My search skills weren't up to par.

Google search seems to work better then drivers own search. Google knows what your looking for while driver gives you what you type in.

Got it done within 45 minutes. Pretty simple job once I figured out how the dust covers went on new pulleys.
