Description

Function of the Auxiliary Belt Tensioner

The auxiliary belt tensioner maintains the correct tension on the serpentine drive belt using a spring-loaded mechanism. Consistent tension prevents belt slippage and ensures all driven accessories operate correctly. A worn tensioner causes belt squeal, belt flutter, premature belt wear, and can lead to belt failure.

Why order it from Partszar

A worn drive belt slips, squeals and eventually snaps, and when it goes the alternator, the power steering and often the water pump stop with it, usually far from home. It is a small part with a big job. Fitted fresh, the squeal is gone and everything it drives keeps turning.
