Hello all Range rover p38 4.6 GEMS 1996 Can anyone help and know the correct length of the single flanged bolt which holds the fan belt tensioner to the alternator bracket Took the tensioner off and some cowboy had fitted an helicoil in the bracket, which came out with the bolt. Panic at first...

Hi everyone. I have just replaced the two belts (main serpentine belt and AC belt) on my L322 3.0TD6 Range Rover, along with all the tensioners, pulleys and idlers for good measure and came across a problem that i couldn't find a solution to online. With that in mind i wanted to share my...

Hello, I'm looking at a 2010 RRS HSE with 180,000km at a significant discount. it has a few mechanical issues but the body and interior are pretty good. The main issue is a rattle from the engine, believed to be the timing chain rattling. I'm fairly mechanically inclined but having watched some...

Hey everyone, so that time has come on my RR. Timing chain tensioner is going out. Lucky for me it is covered under warranty but I wanted to ask..... since the engine is gonna have to come apart to some degree, is it worth it to just have them rebuild engine while it is apart? I am not sure how...

I am getting ready to install the right upper timing chaincover and timing chain tensioner and could use some pointers. Dumb question- does the narrow end go in first or the widerend?

2003 RR 4.4L. I had to change the alternator which went smoothly. When I put the tensioner bolts back in, the one on the right that is to tighten and hold the bracket would not bottom out and I could not get the tensioner to hold against the belt. When I took the bolt back out, it had what looks...

Hi to all, The belt tensioner on my Range rover P38 1997 has broken. I was thinking replacing it myself. Is it an easy job to do ? Thanks for your help,

Has anyone done this repair? What were the results

I've ordered the belt to replace this but am wondering what caused it, and if I should do the belt tensioner while I'm in there? I've been smelling burning rubber for the last couple of days (usually smell burning oil but that's another thread) and looking around the engine for the culprit I...

Hello.... Does anybody know the bearing number for the air-con/alternator belt tensioner on the 2006-2009 l322 (supercharged)? The bearing on the other tensioner (fan belt tensioner bearing) is a 6203, but I can't find the bearing number for the air conditioning belt tensioner on the internet...

2003 Range Rover 4.4 liter. I've read many topics on how easy it was to change, seen pics and tech. Bought the part, and just could not get to it well enough to change it. Had a 19mm with a wobble, still no dice. Took it to a local independent. 8.4 hrs and $700+ was the quote because I don't...

I thought the tensioner had gone on my drive belt so ordered a new one and as I was replacing it it come out under full tension. Turns out the ally block that pulls everything tight with the aid of the tensioner was jammed upmost hence the belt being slack and the tensioner compressed. Anyway...

Ok everyone i just got the car in my driveway and pulled the pan off and found tensioner pieces and small washers that look like they belong on the tensioners in my oil pan so i know something let go. the chains and tensioners where done less than 8k ago. my question is if the chain jumped a...

I need some help ...my 2011 RR Sport Supercharged ...has twice shown me the RESTRICTED PERFORMACE WARNING - both times the RR performed normally, and after I parked and it sat for a while and I started the engine again - the warning was gone...when I spoke to the dealership the first time - they...

This past weekend I had the opportunity to change the worn out belts on my 2006 L322. Definitely a doable procedure with a bit of elbow grease required and mechanical experience. The complete procedure is posted below...

I notice it mostly on the drivers side front door, but I've seen it happen on the passenger side front door as well, if the belt is folded over just once, it won't take up the slack. I'm careful to try to make sure it's not folded over but even so i've almost slammed the buckle in the door twice...
