.... wait.... I just listened to the audio track... that's a different noise than what I was fixing at my place. Mine was more metallic scraping.. That's definitely just belt tension noise. It would have gone away with time as the belt stretched slightly, alleviating the tension.

hmm.. so you don't just let the spring set the tension by itself (like the way serpentine belt tensioners do)? that's what i did on matt's car....... did i screw up? or is that OK? his never made any noises so i know it wasn't over-tightened like maxitech's was.
