I put Dayco idler and tensioner pulleys on my E39 M5 back in the day, they worked and fit perfectly. They were all in stock at Advance Auto to boot. I'm looking to do the same to my X5M, one of the pulleys is starting to squeak. Wonder if yours are the same as mine, what engine do you have?

While replacing the tensioner, replace the idler and accessories belt, they are known to go around the same time.
