Supercharger Pulley
My C32 has 99K. I had the dealer change two idler pulleys (under warranty). As I accelerated a continuous chirping noise was heard and dealer said two idler pulleys were bad. nothing was done to the supercharger pulley, however. I have seen these pulleys offered for sale for $50 on Ebay. When should the supercharger pulley be replaced? Should this be done now or should I wait until I hear some noise. What noise or malfunction would indicate it is time to replace the supercharger pulley?
Thanks,
Andrew

you dont need to change the s/c pulley unless its damaged or your going to a c3 pulley. you only need to remove the pulley and replace the bearing. at 99k it wouldnt hurt to put a new bearing in.
unfortunatly the dealer wont replace a bearing under warrenty. if the bearing goes they replace the entire s/c!!!!!
