Description

Timing Belt Tensioner for the 2.5L Td5 5-Cylinder Turbo Diesel engine timing system.

The tensioner pulley bears directly against the timing belt and maintains the correct running tension between the crankshaft drive sprocket and the camshaft sprocket. A correctly tensioned belt is essential for cam timing accuracy; a worn or seized tensioner allows belt slack, increasing the risk of belt jump and valve-to-piston contact.

Replace as a matter of course when renewing the timing belt.
