Another issue I had was the pulley came installed on the blower unit but the bolts were semi tight (checked quickly by a small hex key). I was stupid and assumed they were torqued/loc-tite by KW. Pulley fell off 3000km later and luckly only broke the belt and scratched things up. They should have just left the pulley off or torqued them. Either way, KW has good customer service. They replaced my pulleys, belt and fluid for free.
How are you checking your belt tension now? The 60hz with the gates app?
