The tensioner fell apart on my td5 defender, luckily on start up, so no apparent damage done.

Have new (genuine) part in hand, just need to know torque setting for bolt for the tensioner. Cannot find in RAVE. Anyone?

Also, should locktite 243 be used?

Thanks, Tim.

50Nm(37 lbf.ft)
It's listed under alternator replacement service repair no 86.10 .02
Doesn't state application of thread locking compound
