...When's the last time you changed your belt tensioner and belt???
 






A new tensioner and belt might be the ticket. Has worked for me in the past.
 






x3 on the tensioner, you shouldn't be slipping wet.
 






I was just gonna say that too
 






Umm my belt was in ending of FEB. the tensioner dont remember :(.. so replacing my tensioner would solve my problem
