Belt Tensioner for the auxiliary (accessory) drive belt system.

The spring-loaded tensioner arm and pulley maintain the correct tension on the serpentine drive belt that turns the ancillaries. Consistent tension keeps the belt tracking correctly and prevents slip, squeal and premature belt wear; a weak or seized tensioner is a common cause of belt noise and accessory drive failure.

Specified for the 3.6L TDV8 twin-turbo V8 diesel engine.

Frequently asked questions

What does the drive belt tensioner do on the 3.6 TDV8?
The belt tensioner keeps the correct tension on the auxiliary serpentine drive belt that turns the engine ancillaries on the 3.6L TDV8 diesel. Its spring-loaded arm and pulley stop the belt slipping and tracking off. A weak or seized tensioner is a common cause of belt noise and accessory drive failure.
Which Land Rover models does this belt tensioner fit?
This tensioner fits the Range Rover L322 from 2002 to 2012 and the Range Rover Sport L320 from 2005 to 2013, both with the 3.6L TDV8 twin-turbo diesel engine. It's specific to that engine's accessory belt layout, so confirm your vehicle runs the 3.6 TDV8.
What are the signs the belt tensioner is failing?
Common signs are belt squeal or chirping, a rattling or grinding pulley, and visible belt wear or misalignment. The tensioner arm typically weakens or the bearing seizes with age. If left, a failed tensioner can throw the drive belt and stop the ancillaries, so replace it at the first sign of noise.
