Genuine Part
Genuine: Original manufacturer part. This product is the original part designed and produced by the vehicle manufacturer.
Drive Belt Tensioner - spring-loaded tensioner pulley assembly in the auxiliary (accessory) drive belt system of the 2.7 Td6 and 3.0 V6 turbo diesel engines.

Mounted on the front face of the engine, it applies constant tension to the auxiliary drive belt that turns the belt-driven engine accessories, taking up belt stretch and damping the load fluctuations that occur as engine speed changes.

A weakened tensioner spring or a worn pulley bearing allows the belt to slip, which shows up as squeal on start-up, rapid belt wear and, in the worst case, a thrown belt.

Frequently asked questions

What does the drive belt tensioner do?
The drive belt tensioner keeps the correct tension on the auxiliary drive belt, so it drives the alternator and ancillaries without slipping. This genuine Land Rover tensioner, part number LR016140LR, fits the front of the 2.7 and 3.0 V6 diesel engines.
Which models does this belt tensioner fit?
This drive belt tensioner fits the Discovery 4 (2010-2016) and Range Rover Sport L320 (2010-2013) with the 2.7 Td6 or 3.0 V6 diesel, from VIN AA000001, on vehicles without ACE suspension. Confirm your engine and ACE fitment before ordering.
What are the symptoms of a worn belt tensioner?
A worn drive belt tensioner typically causes belt squeal, rattling or knocking from the front of the engine, and premature belt wear as tension is lost. A seized pulley bearing can throw the belt. It's common to replace the tensioner with the auxiliary belt.
