Ran into the first problem with the 06 last night. Coming home from work it developed a high pitch squealing "not belt squeal" Today in the light I can see that the supercharger belt tensioner is sitting crooked on the belt almost like it came loose? Is this a common problem? What all do I have to remove to get to that tensioner? The whole tensioner itself is crooked not just the pulley.

Diregard I got it fixed. The tensioner bolt was extremely loose but I was able to get to it with a long 9/16 wrench without removing anything. Everything is back to normal now.

Already taken care of. Red Loctite and tightened nice and snug. Love the car so far. Took it to work yesterday and it gathered quite the crowd in the parking lot followed by the typical "How can you afford a 200k car?" LMAO some people just don't know anything about cars. :rolaugh:
