Thread: TD5 belt tensioners

The Deefers idler pully was sounding like it had done a bearing.
I dad a spare secondhand one off my D2 so I removed the deefer one and replaced it with the old D2 one after greasing it,problem fixed.If I recal,the D2 one was making a similar noise so I replaced the tensioner.
The ex Deefer one seems fine,no play and spins freely so it too may only need greasing to be servicable.
Anybody know if you can buy the pulley alone with bearing minus the tensioner???? dont really like the idea of drilling the rivets and re-setting to replace the bearing.
Cheers

It is a matter of matching what they have to what you have as rarely do they list obscure cars like Land Rovers.
