Idler Pulley Failure
My idler pulley failed today. No squeaking symptoms prior to the failure which has me concerned. Has anyone heard of a pulley failing without any prior noise? It seized hard enough to bend the bolt that held it in place and of course I lost the serpentine belt. Lost power steering, traction control and ABS and the battery light came on. I made it just off the highway before it started over heating (stupid traffic). Should be back on the road Wednesday when the part arrives at the stealership. Anyone have some insight on the failure and if I should be concerned any further than the idler pulley? Let's hold off on talk about the water pump, there's enough information out there on THAT.
