Genuine Part
Genuine: Original manufacturer part. This product is the original part designed and produced by the vehicle manufacturer.
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 PQG500160LR belt tensioner do?
The PQG500160LR belt tensioner keeps the correct tension on the auxiliary drive belt of the 3.6 TDV8 diesel. It uses a spring-loaded arm and pulley to take up slack so the belt drives the ancillaries reliably. Genuine Land Rover part, LR number PQG500160.
Which vehicles does the PQG500160LR tensioner fit?
The PQG500160LR belt tensioner fits the Range Rover L322 3.6 TDV8 diesel (2002-2012) and Range Rover Sport L320 3.6 TDV8 diesel (2005-2013). It's specific to the 3.6 V8 diesel, so it won't fit petrol engines. Confirm your engine before ordering.
What are the signs of a worn belt tensioner?
A worn belt tensioner typically causes belt squeal, rattling or knocking from the front of the engine, and belt flutter or premature belt wear. The internal spring or bearing wears out over time. Replace the tensioner if it's noisy, the pulley wobbles, or the belt won't stay tensioned.
