Hi bought my Jtd a few months back its got 73k on the clock. The previous owner told me that the timing belt had been done. I asked him if anything needed done to the car and he said that the tensioners would need done soon. Now at that time i didnt know what the tensioners were and i didnt want to ask to look stupid but i guess i should have now.
So do you think he had the timing belt only changed and not the tensioners? I know theres alot of labour time taking the engine apart etc so i cant exactly get a garage to check if they need changing might aswell just buy them and get them to change them? There are two types of tensioners on shop4parts fixed and adjustable which 1 do i need or do i need both? Suppose i should get a new water pump aswell.
Or do you think he was talking about the aux tensioners? When do they need changed? and what are they for?
Lot of noob questions thanks for the advice.
