They should feel the same though, if one feels worn, or in any way different the the other one, replace it. (there are only two, one fixed, one on an arm that is doing the tensioning.)

I would do the water pump, more going on with that bearing, the weight and vibration's from the impeller, and one seal has coolant under pressure on the other side of it, among other things.


I agree, replace the belt tensioner, and also the water pump, even if it seems ok.
