Default Need parts help...

Ok, so i am looking for just the pads for my cam chain tennsioner for my S? Anyone know where i can find them? I have called the dealership who told me to buy the entire $300 part... Um, no thanks... I don't have that type of money lying around for that right now, so where can i pick up the pads seperately?

Have you tried Paragon Products?

They seem to be able to get ahold of just about anything.

Sorry...Let's try this again. If you are going to change the pad, I would definitely make sure this is a temporary fix. The Black Forest here in San Diego has told me that not only does the pad wear, but, the springs in the tensioner need replacement. The pad change alone is not the safest way to go.

Yeah i know that it needs to be temp (unless i do the springs as well) but the fact of the matter is, i don't really have 300 dollars for a part at the moment....
