i have a tensioner thats goin bad on my v6, it's misaligned a bit and it's causin the car to heat up and all that jazz apparently. i know i need a new one but no one seems to have the part. i heard these are only $90, but does anyone on here know? i might have to get it from chevy, but it's usually more expensive form the manufacturer. any help/suggestions on where to buy one would be appreciated. also, any idea what kinda workload it is to install this part? thx

 

welp, its 150 at chevy, coolent runs through it, and ull break a plastic elbow while doing the job. the chevy guys know this and keep the elbow in stock lol. its easy but a pain to keep clean.

 

Yeah. I needed one and lucked out, finding a NEW assembly on eBay. I got it for roughly 40 bucks, and picked up the plastic elbow for 5 at a local AutoZone.
