I am needing to purchase timing belts and tensioners for 1.6D, 1.6TD, and a 1.5 - I have heard Continental (Contitech) belts are a good quality belt for price - what about tensioners and where is a good place to purhcase from?

Also is the TB for the 1.5D same as 1.6D and 1.6TD?

Here, you should find Conti and a known tensioner and they give pretty fast service. Freight included after $75. Good time to get oil filters, wipers, and stuff like that to make it to $75.
