Ah hate to see this! If oil pressure is a suspect, it would be interesting to see what it's reading at 1k rpm when the rattle is present.

I actually replaced all three when i was putting the front cover back on. My mistake was i didnt use OEm for the pulleys which i knew would bite me in the ***, and it did. Thats autozone quality for ya. Thankfully i went OEM with everything else it was just i needed them in a pinch and figured they wouldnt fail in two months…

Dayco was the brand i got too ironically…. It looked good because it seemed like it was machined well. But i guess the bearing is bad in those. Not sure what the supplier for bearings they use is but ill avoid them going forward.

Ironically, today, RA is once again selling Gates for my Murano and the dayco kit is removed. So I'm wondering if there has been many returns to RA and there might be a Dayco manufacturing issue?

 The worst, installing a new part that was a failure right out of the box. At least, you didn't have to dig back into the front cover. As far as bearings, the vast majority are chinese junk. The nissan unit might even be chinese but with better QC. You can always pop it out and install a US sourced bearing or even ceramic but that's probably overkill unless running a supercharger.
