I had a similar problem that turned out to be that the dealer hadn't
properly reinstalled the lower pulley after replacing the timing belt.
The bolt worked out, and the pulleys were no longer aligned. Visible
differences!
It requires a special press to reinstall the pulley. If they try to
torque it down by just tightening the the bolt, that's a bad idea.
