Matty Moo Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 I've been wondering this myself. I know my tensioner will need to be replaced sometime soon, and noticed that there are 2 different part #s. Not just on FCP, but on Tascavolvo as well. I'll be ordering from DW volvo next week, so I'll ask when I call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The serpentine tensioner is one type only. ANd, for the serpentine tensioner i wouldn't be so concerned about where you get it more than how much it costs. If it fails, nothing catastrophic happens. But, Jamie is the best source for OEM parts and prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
