So my mechanic has narrowed down the whine to the Accessory belt tensioner and it needs to be replaced. I can't find any part numbers for this? Could i just replace with something from Rock auto?

WAIT UP! I also had a thread that I recently started about a squeeling that got louder after I replaced my alternator. My mechanic says it's my belt. I feel that it could be my belt OR PERHAPS I thought it could be that the belt is too tight. MANY on these forums said that the belt is self tensioning and that their is NO ADJUSTMENT!? Now your telling me that their IS IN FACT a accessory belt tensioner? DAMN! This could be the culprit to my issues as well. Gotta look up in my thread as to who passed off poor information to me!![Sad](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/sad.gif)
