I've had mine for 12K miles and no problems yet. Are you sure it was installed correctly?

there is a thread in the group deal forum that talks about Definitive VQ pullies vs. RVM. They said what you are talking about was inevitable with the RVM pulley because of the way it is made.

I had the same problem a couple of months after I installed it. All I did was just rplace the seal and its been fine since.

Did you originally replace the seal when you installed it?
