VR6 Belt Tensioner

Recommended Posts

Yeah thats the part - looks a good price but postage may take it over the price of a new one £70 from VAG

 

Other options are you can replace the bearing if the spring and wheel are ok - guide to do this in the KB and part is £10 ish

 

There is also a billet tensioner wheel with bearing available from somewhere (states i think)

VInce @ Stealth kept telling me he was looking at getting replacement pulleys made up, but I don't know whether they ever got around to it. This was back when the VW part was ~£130 .. now it's reduced to "only" £70 I'm not sure it would make so much sense.

That Billet one above looks just like the Gruven one!

 

It's a good buy as it comes with a good quality SKF bearing, which you can change when ever with circlip pliers easily.
