Product Description

Ensure the precise operation of your engine's timing system with the Arrowhead Timing Chain Tensioner, designed for use in BMW and Peugeot models. This component maintains the correct tension on your engine timing chain, helping to prevent chain slack and maintain accurate valve timing. A worn or faulty tensioner can lead to engine noise, poor performance, and even severe internal damage if not addressed promptly.

This tensioner is compatible with select BMW and Peugeot vehicles, including various BMW F20, F21, F30, and F31 models with N13 engines, as well as applicable Peugeot models. Always confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure correct fitment.

Common signs of a failing timing chain tensioner include rattling noises from the engine, difficulty starting, poor acceleration, engine misfires, and check engine light warnings. If you experience these symptoms, it is important to inspect and, if necessary, replace the tensioner to avoid further complications.

Replacing the timing chain tensioner is a crucial maintenance step when you notice symptoms or during timing chain service intervals. Delaying replacement can result in timing chain failure, risking extensive engine damage and costly repairs.
