Yes, you have the picture. Similar config to the new 9-3's. But different belt and you can't use the 9-3 small idler pully or the 9-3 belt.
The large steel idler by the alternator seems to be a non issue. I can't recall post about one of these failing. Certainly not in the same class as the plastic ones. So I did not even mention it. I assume that its slow speed gives it long life. The faster these spin, the more the lubricant is lost out the seal to the outer race. I put on a new idler pully. I sealed the seal to the outer race to prevent the lubricant from getting lost. Older ones have no lubricant left at all. It does not evaporate!
Can you get some opinions on that large steel pully from your dealer? As long as you have him on the phone, a reference price would be nice to have.
