is that question?
the idler is not rare, at all
rock has them as do most stores,
again the huge problem is only , most stores fail to ask SPORT or NON SPORT car, fail to ask 1.6L or 1.8L, no all stores make that blunder just most. (USA)
and there are no sports outside USA< unless shipped from N.America to outside USA. oK?>
in fact Sidekick is USA (n.American marketing name) for Vitara. sE420 and SQ420 is the only near match but is not the same car. (non sedans, like Esteem j18)
there are many parts that can make NOISE there,
the fan clutch
the tensenor idler
the the fan pulley extension too.
the water pump bearings.
are you going to guess,? why not use a $5 mechanics stethoscope and find the one part that make noise,
way to is drop all belts. and spin them and flex them all all directions, if you find play ,it is bad, if you feel it is gritty turned, its bad.
and more
Alternator noise.
P/S pump noise
or just bad belts, (if frayed sure, if loose they can squeal)
