a Saab part (not sure on this) and then look at when the others have failed on your other cars. Maybe this is a once every 75K mile thing? Less? More? Replace the tensioner and bolt as a set?
Or has something else caused it? If it was over-torqued that could stress it one way; under-torqued could cause it to back out a tad and take more load. As someone else noted, maybe it should be dabbed with LocTite Blue on reinstall. And I wonder how condtion of the tensioner shock affects it? That's just a spring, but would a worn tensisoner add stress?
