Land Rover Part Number: PQG100142L - Ancillary Drive Tensioner
PQG100142L is an ancillary drive tensioner fitted to the ancillary drive of 2.5 KV6 petrol engines on Freelander 1996-2006 models with automatic transmission. The tensioner positions and maintains the correct path of the ancillary drive belt for the power steering pump, keeping the belt aligned with accessory pulleys to reduce slip, wear and noise and to support consistent accessory operation under varying engine loads. Inspection should focus on the pulley condition and smooth rotation; a worn or seized tensioner pulley can alter belt tracking and accelerate wear on the belt and driven accessories. Replace the tensioner where acoustic signs or visible wear are present to restore correct belt routing on the ancillary drive. Use the compatibility data below to confirm fitment against your V.I.N.
