Aftermarket: Quality alternative. This is a quality alternative, designed to fit and function like the original part, often at a more competitive price.
Timing Chain Tensioner Spring for the 2.0L 8-valve TCIE direct injection diesel engine.

Works inside the timing chain tensioner assembly, providing the spring load that holds the tensioner against the chain and takes up slack in the timing drive. A weakened or collapsed spring allows the chain to run slack, typically heard as chain rattle from the timing case on cold start.

Fit a new spring whenever the tensioner assembly is disturbed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the timing chain tensioner spring do on the Freelander 1 2.0L diesel?
It sits inside the timing chain tensioner assembly and provides the spring load that holds the tensioner against the chain, taking up slack in the timing drive of the 2.0L TCIE diesel engine.
Is this spring sold separately from the full tensioner assembly?
Yes, it's sold as the spring only, for cases where the rest of the tensioner assembly is still serviceable and just the spring has weakened.
Should this spring be replaced every time the tensioner is disturbed?
Yes, fit a new spring whenever the tensioner assembly is disturbed, since a weakened spring is easy to overlook once everything is reassembled.
What happens if the tensioner spring weakens or collapses?
A weak or collapsed spring lets the timing chain run slack, typically heard as chain rattle from the timing case on a cold start. Left unaddressed, this accelerates wear on the chain and guides.
Does this spring fit all Freelander 1 diesel engines?
It fits the 2.0L 8-valve TCIE diesel engine specifically. Freelander 1s with the TD4 2.0L BMW-sourced diesel use a different tensioner design, so confirm your engine variant before ordering.
