Default Tensioner Pulley Vibration

Hey everyone,
i was just wondering is anyone else with the supercharger is having this issue...

the pulley itself isnt vibrating side to side...its vibrating like the "self-adjusting" mechianism is having issues....you can watch is move up and down to adjust itself but every once and a while it will flip out and start vibrating up and down very fast, then, as fast as it starts to act up, it stops and returns to normal.

This only happens when i havent run the car for about 8 hours and when the outside temp is around 60deg. or so...and stops once the car has been warmed up and driven for a few miles...

Any suggestions to what i should do??

Thanks
Dan

Do you have the right belt on? I'm assuming you swaped out your pulley... I don't think I would worry about it, but havne't experienced the same thing.

i touched nothing....i had the dealer install the s/c. and i also had them give me back all of the parts that they removed, so i know they put the right belt on. im not really worried about it, just because it doesnt happen all the time and that it goes away after warming up, but i would still like to know whats causeing it.

i was gonna take it to the dealer but i would have to leave the car there with them over night so they could start it in the morning...and that doesnt even guarentee that it will do it for them.
