Don't buy cheap construction!

Do not buy! I installed it on my 2002 VW Golf Tdi and the part fell apart in two. Directly between the pulley and the damper piston mount.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Quality

Belt tensioner VW Jetti TDI assembly

I have purchased this product before and it is a great replacement for the factory jig which is very expensive. The installation is easy in my opinion.

Pros
  • All right!
Cons
  • Hard to say

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Absolute waste of time and money. All the liquid has come out of the valve body.

Waste of money and time. Exactly the same part as the unnamed part from eBay. Same casting numbers and all. ** Hydraulic damper leaks after a few hundred miles. ** This will render the device completely unusable and you will have to replace it again.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Great product and fast shipping

Gates are known for their quality products and I couldn't believe I found this at Revain. The Gates bearing is precise and quiet. It is also suitable for OEM. With this and overnight shipping with Revain Prime, I got it quicker for less than half the price of a dealer or a local parts store that doesn't stock this build.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • No
