Automotive Tips from Tuffy Fort Myers (Daniels Pkwy): Serpentine Belt Tensioner

April 2, 2023

Please wait while the video is loading...

The serpentine belt tensioner applies pressure to the serpentine belt, maintaining optimal tension to drive the accessories like the alternator and A/C compressor. At Tuffy Fort Myers (Daniels Pkwy) we know that the service life of the belt tensioner is the same as the belt itself, so they should always be replaced together. A worn tensioner prevents the accessories from spinning properly, leading to premature wear and noise for Fort Myers drivers.

Your vehicle manufacturer has a recommended mileage interval for serpentine belt replacement. A complete accessory drive system service replaces the serpentine belt, the belt tensioner and any idler pulleys your car might have. Your friendly and professional Tuffy Fort Myers (Daniels Pkwy) service advisor can inspect your system and let you know if it’s time for a replacement.

Give us a call.
