Well, I replaced the Subaru's radiator hose, so that car works marginally well, and I replaced my alternator idler pulley with a new, non-snapped bolt and non-totally-destroyed bearing.. Much quieter. Now I get to start thinking about the strut(s). Hmmmm....

I'll try to get a video of my exhaust later today. I'm glad you got a bolt and bearing. Where did you end up going?

I hate that idler bolt. When I worked in a shop I would always cringe at those things when they came in.

I got one from fastenal, but I got a pain-in-the-ASS metric bolt with the hex head. So not socketable. So I allen wrenched it in. But it is a great bolt. And it's so quiet under there now, aside from the ticking.

I couldn't find one at all on Tuesday. That was a real pain.
