Slightly related, does anyone know if the idler pulleys are the same size on the gti-6 and hdi? Lynx do a solid set with replacable bearings for the 6 but they didnt know if they would fit a hdi.

You can get them on euro car parts or car parts for less or gsf. Just enter that you have 307.

Yeah put your hand in your pocket and get something decent. The cheap parts really do suck

Second hand solid one will be just as good except a bit of minor wear.
