Getting a wierd knocking noise coming from the engine bay.....only does it after I start the car when it has been sitting for more than 8 hours or so. Sounds almost like a sparking....increases with revs. Goes away after less than five minutes of driving. Noticed that my lower belt tensioner is completely frozen, in that there is no play in it at all. Could this be a source of the noise?? Just would like another opinion before I drop the cash on a new tensioner. Thanks!!!
