Idler Pulley
« on: August 01, 2010, 11:36:22 pm »
1.9TD

The serp belt idler pulley located on the P/S bracket. It guides the belt to the A/C compressor.

Anyone know the P/N? I'm having trouble sourcing one.

Yup, as far as anyone's been able to determine the pulley is NLA as a separate part, if it ever was.

Awesome.

So now what do I do? Just remove it? Can the belt pass between the water pump and P/S pump with out it?

Just to be clear... I'm thinking you're talking about the spring-loaded tensioner pulley.

If so... the solution is to buy a new tensioner assembly... or find one at a junk yard.

If you're talking about the relay roller, the part number is 028 145 278E.... probably a dealer-only part at this point.

Not the pulley on the spring loaded arm. I'm looking for the little one that bolts to the steel bracket that the P/S pump adjusts on.

K, if we're now on the same page that's the relay roller.. the part number shows in stock at Bestpriceautoparts.ca, for one:

No, that P/N is for the spring loaded tensioner wheel.

That's the P/N ETKA gives me for the relay roller, also the part number I searched for at Bestpriceauto.

"tis all I know on this one... over and out.

Dealer sometimes knows where to look for stuff in ETKA in corners I'd never dream of...

I'd say call Nicole in Thunder Bay ON at the dub dealership. She is a parts guru. There is also a store in Calgary that does dub only sourcing, can't recall the name off hand.
