NOT SUITABLE FOR TOWN AND COUNTRY YEAR 2005

Yes, I replaced the tensioner two years ago and also ordered it to be replaced, but my idler pulley was fine at the time and I was tired. in 2020, and this piece of junk is nowhere near that big. The seller and AMAZON lied to me because they said it would fit. I really should be entitled to a refund. But yes (trash at the bottom of my picture)

Pros
  • Installation Type: Vehicle Specific
Cons
  • So-so

Not for 2006 Sedona for idler or idler pulley!

Not for Kia Sedona 2006. The inner diameter of this pulley is too large for installation. This item is also listed as fitting the idler pulley on the same vehicle. Well, the inside diameter is fine, but you'll need to find a 2 or 3mm thick washer to attach the mounting bolt as a spacer to get the pulley surface to match the belt. Without the spacer, the belt will stick out of the pulley almost 1/8 inch!

Pros
  • comes with mounting hardware as an optional feature in some popular applications.
Cons
  • Available in white only.

Not suitable for Entourage

The pulley bore was much larger than the Entourage idler pulley. The first picture shows the two pulleys with the idler pulley bolt in the new "replacement" pulley. Obviously the hole is much larger than 10mm. The second picture shows the position of the idler pulley near the alternator. The "replacement" pulley had a much narrower bearing recessed into the pulley. If you could find a bushing that would allow a "spare" pulley to be fitted, it would interfere with the alternator by at least…

Pros
  • Provides reliable performance in harsh environments for year-round use
Cons
  • Good, but not great
