Product Description

The Arrowhead Tensioner V Belt 76x26mm is a crucial component in the engine vee belt tensioner system for select Audi, Seat, and Volkswagen models. This part ensures consistent tension is maintained on the vee belt, which drives essential engine accessories such as the alternator and air conditioning compressor. With a robust ribbed pulley design and a durable metal hub, this tensioner is built to withstand the demands of modern engine bays.

This tensioner is compatible with a range of Audi, Seat, and Volkswagen vehicles. It is especially important to verify compatibility with your specific model, year, engine size, and engine code before purchasing, as fitment can vary within model ranges.

Common symptoms of a failing vee belt tensioner include squeaking or chirping noises from the engine bay, visible belt slippage, erratic accessory operation, and excessive belt wear. You may also notice the engine warning light or power steering and air conditioning issues if the tensioner is not functioning properly.

If you experience these symptoms, it is advisable to inspect and replace the vee belt tensioner promptly to avoid further damage to the engine or belt-driven accessories. Regular checks during scheduled servicing can help prevent unexpected breakdowns.
