Kettingspanner voor de Td5 2.5L 5-cilinder turbodiesel, onderdeel van de distributiekettingaandrijving aan de voorkant van de motor.

De spanner drukt tegen de kettingsgeleider om de distributieketting onder gecontroleerde spanning te houden, en vangt speling op naarmate de ketting slijt, zodat de kleptiming nauwkeurig blijft en de ketting niet tegen de geleiders slaat. Een defecte of zwakke spanner veroorzaakt kettinggerammel en timingfouten en versnelt de slijtage van de ketting, geleiders en tandwielen.

Frequently asked questions

What does the timing chain tensioner do on the Td5 engine?
It acts against the chain guide to keep the timing chain under controlled tension as the chain wears, so valve timing stays accurate. It's part of the timing chain drive at the front of the 2.5L Td5 five-cylinder turbo diesel.
Is the tensioner sold with the chain and guides, or on its own?
It's sold on its own as a single tensioner, though it's typically renewed together with the timing chain and guides during the same job to avoid repeat failures.
What tools are needed to fit a Td5 timing chain tensioner?
Fitting means removing the front timing cover, which is a specialist job on the Td5 requiring the chain to be held correctly to avoid disturbing valve timing. It's not a task for basic hand tools alone.
What happens if the timing chain tensioner fails?
A weak or failed tensioner lets the timing chain rattle and allows timing to drift, which accelerates wear on the chain, guides and sprockets. Left unaddressed, this typically leads to chain slap noise and eventual chain jump.
Is there an alternative part number for this tensioner?
Yes, LGQ100500 is the cross-referenced alternative for the same Td5 applications: Defender 1987-2006 and Discovery 2 1998-2004.
