Tensioner and idler

[Pob]

Hi all,

I need to replace the Aux drive belt and possibly the tensioner or idler pulley needs replacing. Can the pulley be bought on thier own? I.e without the whole tensioner assembly? Are these avalible from Motorfactors or dealer only? Oh I have a 2.0 16v

Thanks,
Dan

yeah they can about £50.00 quid - so i nicked one out the scrappers off a xantia and it worked a treat an saved me some dough - bloody silly price i reckon - is it the spring about 5" long you're after by the way?

Hi,

I bought a new idler pulley £19 and used the pulley off a tensioner I no longer needed off a turbo engine I have. No more grinding noise

Thanks,
Dan
