G5vws 11 Posted December 23, 2016 Hi folks. This may sound like a daft question. Is there different types of tensioners? The one I've been supplied with looks totally different from the one on the car. Everywhere only seems to list 1 tensioner including vw. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VEEDUBBED 0 Posted December 23, 2016 I've Got a different Version in My box of bits too, i think it was off the Audi 2.0 16v Engine but it's been ages so i'm not 100% sure. Can you put up a photo? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

G5vws 11 Posted December 23, 2016 Ok nice one ,at least I'm not going mad, there are 2 different ones. So the question is where do I get one? Everyone seems to only stock or list the normal manual adjust with the 2 holes. Anyone know what the part number for it is. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VEEDUBBED 0 Posted December 23, 2016 If I've still got It i could get you the number. I just need to find a way of getting down to my garage, it's underground and I've got a busted ankle.. I 'think' you can retro fit the older version but I don't remember if the locating stud on the cyl. Head is bigger than the version in your car's head. What's wrong with your tensioner? Noisy?

G5vws 11 Posted December 23, 2016 Yeah it started to whine about a week ago so I thought better safe than sorry. And looking through the cars history last change was done 2010. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
