Default Tensioner Pulley

I just hit 15,000 miles and my tensioner pulley just had to be replaced. Has this happened to anyone else? If so, how many miles in did it happen?

Had to have mine replaced at about 5,000 miles. It made a sort of ticking noise and it got really loud with the A/C on.

It's a very common problem, on all current generation mazda's. It used to pop up all the time in the 6 forums (before any speeds were even out).

Does it sound like your engine "turning over" every 30 seconds at idle?

Mine's like a whoosh whoosh sound that is in sync with RPM and mostly audible at idle.
