Volkswgen Golf, Polo, Jetta, Audi A3 - Belt Tensioner Pulley

Description

This premium auxiliary serpentine belt tensioner assembly is engineered to factory original equipment standards to maintain precise, constant tension on the accessory drive belt. Manufactured with a heavy-duty cast aluminum housing and a high-grade internal coil spring, it dynamically dampens engine vibrations and adjusts for belt stretch across all engine speeds. The pre-mounted pulley features a smooth-running, dual-sealed premium bearing that prevents dust, road spray, and grit from causing premature bearing failure or friction noise. Replacing a weak, sticking, or chirping factory tensioner eliminates belt slippage, prevents premature wear on your alternator and power steering pump bearings, and safeguards against sudden accessory belt snap conditions.
