[QUOTE="tank34, post: 198890, member: 1332"] Gents, confirmed, it was actually the tensioner bearing. But for peace of mind, Ah-Meng MSpeed suggested changing both. RM120 for the bearing, RM140 for the tensioner pulley. The old bearings were in bad shape, I compared it with the new one the old one was not "spinning" smoothly, the new one was tighter and alot smoother. The tensioner pulley was actually fine, so I've kept the old parts in case my pulley really gives problems in the future. Anyways, changed both parts at 64,300km, average life span??? As for oil pump whining. The oil pump is located under the back passenger seats behind the driver side. I've changed them recently because the floater attached to the pump was going crazy giving me erratic gauge reading. Search thread for it, Calyon started the thread. [/QUOTE]
