Great guys...only charged me for new idler pulley and put new belt on. Nice to find an honest garage! Thank you for replies!!

Ps... what do I click on to post under anothe specific topic in forum?

Thank you for advice! Unfortunately I am no a mechanic, so I was looking for advice on previous work done. I am thinking if they improperly installed the tensioner pulley, that it broke the next pulley. I don’t want to get ripped off if that is the case.

Hi! I am new to group and need advice. I just had new belt and tensioner pulley installed. About 30 miles later it started making awful noise. I called and said it looked like belt is slipping off. He told me to drive it back so he could look at it. All my friends said to NOT drive it. It looks like the belt idler pulley is bent towards engine and belt is about to come off...I also see some metal shavings. I will have it towed there, but I'm afraid they will say it's a separate issue and I will have to pay more. Any thoughts? Perhaps it wasn't installed properly to begin with and caused other pulley to bend? I am surprised he told me to drive it
