    That's odd... I'm not sure what would cause it to wear so quickly. Maybe a bearing going bad on one of the pulleys causing it to slip?

    Do you have to replace coolant regularly? As others have said it could be a heater core leak or head gasket leaking into the cylinder and getting burned off, if you are losing coolant.

    I doubt it's the urd pulley. Check the pulley at the very bottom of the motor. It's got an adjuster on it....

    Yea that looks like the tensioner to me... definitely wanna replace the pulley when you do the belt. though it looks like its an aftermarket pulley (as you said URD) on the fatory tension arm. It may just be improperly installed...
