This is a fan tensioner set, including the belt, for Volvo D13 engines with 12 grooves. It maintains the correct tension on the engine's accessory drive belt, ensuring reliable operation of components like the alternator, water pump, and fan. A worn tensioner or belt can lead to slippage, noise, and failure of driven accessories. Symptoms include a flapping or squealing belt, or a loss of function in the components driven by the belt.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Inspect mating surfaces for wear before fitting. Use torque specs from service manual. Replace gaskets and seals as a set — reusing compressed gaskets causes oil leaks. Clean all oil passages with compressed air.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
The first indication of a failing fan tensioner or belt is usually a high-pitched squealing or flapping noise from the front of the engine. If the tensioner fails completely, the belt will lose tension, causing the alternator, water pump, and fan to stop functioning correctly. This can lead to battery discharge, engine overheating, and loss of cooling.
Before removing the old belt, note the routing around all pulleys to ensure correct installation of the new belt. When releasing tension on the old belt, do so slowly to avoid sudden snapping.
Inspect all accessory pulleys for damage, wear, and proper alignment when replacing the fan belt and tensioner.
