Re: 2.1TD Upper Alternator Tensioner

Hold on, I think I'm looking at the wrong thing.... That's the cam belt tensioner, no-one seems to list an aux belt tensioner for the 2.1, looks like it's in two parts and it's not cheap :( (You sure you don't want one from the breakers?)

Re: 2.1 TD Belt Tensioner

So it just sounds like its a pain in the ass to fit? I have undone the actual tensioner bolt but it hasnt done alot. It has moved up towards the pulley above? should I try and remove the pulley above do you think?

Re: 2.1 TD Belt Tensioner

Ah that might explain it. There is another pulley with a square hole right near the crank. So im probably undoing the wrong thing. I did notice it seemed very tight when trying to get to the pulley near the crank.

The only thing im noticing is that at times it idles a little rough, but I believe that the fuel filter needs changing and that will solve that little ...
