[QUOTE="FJRAE, post: 1178321, member: 22764"] A – 2006 AE B – 30k C – Put it on my to do list and listened for any increased noise. D – Seems to have silenced it, only run in the garage so far, but noticeably quieter. E – Self diagnosed, had the same issue on the cbr. F – No related issues. G – Replaced myself. H – No warranty coverage. I – First replacement. J – Started around 18k, became slightly louder over time. K - Went with the redesign, noticeably more tension than the OE tensioner. Just want to offer a tip on removal/installation; a 1/4" drive Matco u-joint type swivel socket on a 6" extension works smooth as butter on both mounting bolts, until the last few threads which than can then be done with a magnet or finger and a long thin screwdriver to turn the bolt on it's edges. Thanks to the author of the tutorial with pics, knew exactly what to expect. [/QUOTE]
