Need driveblet and tensioner replaced, how much $?
Got an oil change today and they said I need to have the drivebelt and tensioner replaced. It was a toyota dealership. I plan on calling the Lexus dealership tomorrow to see how much. My car has just under 80k miles, I was hoping I wouldnt have to do this until the 90k service. Should I go ahead and have the rest of the 90k service stuff done or just the drive belt/tensioner, and maybe water pump?

hey Rich-call Sewell and order the stuff. you should be able to do it . the belt is about $30 and the tensioner should be about $40-50 for the whole assembly with new tensioner and pulley.
I did mine but I ended up just using the pulley off the new tensioner because my pulley bearing was bad but tensioner was still fine.

I know I'm kinda bringing this back from the "dead", but I am having the same problem and it is quite annoying/embarassing driving with this sound coming from my 2nd gen.
I was wondering how difficult of a DIY this is as well and if there is a write up anywhere. Any help is appreciated.

I still havent done this yet but if it is as easy as sockfocks describes I am tempted to order the parts and do it myself. Stan where are you getting the price from for the tensioner?
