The local dealer in Victorville, CA did not have the parts and made some calls to other dealers in SoCAL for me. Long story short, we trailered the Z to the dealer in Montclair and they had me in and out within hour and a half. They change the idler pulley, replaced the belt and washed the car. They were awesome!!! No problems since then, but its always in the back of my mind and I check it regularly now.
