Genuine Part
Genuine: Original manufacturer part. This product is the original part designed and produced by the vehicle manufacturer.
Belt Tensioner - 4.4 V8 AJ is the automatic tensioner of the accessory (auxiliary) drive belt system, holding the correct running tension on the primary polyvee drive belt.

The assembly combines a spring-loaded pivoting arm with an integral idler pulley, absorbing belt stretch and thermal expansion so that the belt stays seated across the crankshaft and the accessory pulleys throughout the engine speed range. Bearing rumble, belt squeal or visible flutter of the tensioner arm indicate a unit at the end of its service life; it is normally replaced together with the drive belt.

For the 4.4L AJ-V8 petrol engine.

Frequently asked questions

What does the PQG500030LR belt tensioner do?
The PQG500030LR belt tensioner keeps the accessory drive belt under correct tension on the 4.4L AJ V8 petrol engine. Its spring-loaded pivoting arm and integral idler pulley absorb belt stretch and thermal expansion so the belt stays seated across the crankshaft and accessory pulleys.
Which vehicles use this belt tensioner?
This belt tensioner suits the Discovery 3 (2005-2009, less Roll Stability Control), Range Rover L322 (2002-2009) and Range Rover Sport L320 (2005-2009) fitted with the 4.4L V8 AJ EFI or 4.2L V8 supercharged petrol engine.
When should the drive belt tensioner be renewed?
Renew the tensioner when you hear bearing rumble or belt squeal, or see the arm fluttering, on the AJ V8. Fitting a new tensioner alongside a fresh auxiliary belt prevents a worn unit from chewing through the new belt.
