timing belt tensioner and the idler pulley are very important
they may be ok today, but no way going to last another 100kmiles and maybe a lot less~
it either fails its the same as breaking the belt = massive internal engine damage
dont squib on these parts--much needed!!!

never have wiser words been typed!!!!

make sure to ck the rad hoses condition- new thermostat never a bad plan
saves you from draining the coolant again in a year when those are bad~

if in the budget- valve adjust never hurt,,a few will be off and perfect makes the car run better, more efficient in this $4+++ headed for $5 a gallon days- I want max mileage,,, when not hot footing around~

if shop doing valve adjust is not in current budget- DIY EGR port system cleaning by removing intake manifold
I mention it with valve adjust since the IM comes off to access the valve covers--for some combined labor savings
