These 90 degree molded belt tensioner assemblies are very important in optimal operation of the accessory belt drive system. The tensioner maintains the correct amount of tension on the belt throughout operation. ACDelco Gold (Professional) parts are manufactured to meet your expectations for fit, form, and function, making them a smart choice for General Motors vehicles, as well as most makes and models, including special applications. These high-quality parts are backed by General Motors. Some ACDelco Gold parts may have formerly appeared as ACDelco Professional.

Review: Very smooth, very quiet operation, just like factory - I will only buy GM original parts or ACDelco for my 2005 Z71 crewcab. I’ve been down the fraction of the price, can’t pronounce the name parts from desertcart and will not go down that road ever again. OEM is the only way to go. Especially on a part like this that is constantly moving and needs to last 60,000 to 120,000 miles. My previous one (OEM) was on there 116,000 miles. I’ll take that again. So I’ll pay the extra and not repeat this and have to buy another one in a few thousand miles. ACDelco Gold is the ticket. This thing fit perfectly, and zero noise. Smooth as glass operation. My old one was rubbing on the tensioner arm, making a scraping sound.. wore out. The new one looks purty under there. And works great. Always buy OEM, GM original parts or ACDelco only. You won’t be sorry, but trust me.
Review: Fits like OEM - Feels and looks like OEM. This item was a breeze to install and had a much smoother operation than my old one that i had been neglecting to change. It gives the engine a cleaner look and eliminated the slight squeal that the old one was starting to make.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why is it important to have belts and hoses replaced periodically?**
A: If a drivebelt or radiator coolant hose fails while driving, you won’t be able to continue driving — and additional engine damage may occur if the engine overheats.

**Q: How long do belts and hoses typically last?**
A: Lifespans of belts and hoses vary based on factors including the climate and driving habits, but generally a drivebelt (also known as a serpentine belt) lasts about 50,000-100,00 miles, while radiator coolant hoses can last about five years.

**Q: What are signs the drivebelt needs replacement?**
A: A worn drivebelt can slip while the engine is running, causing high-pitched squealing or chirping sounds. Additionally, it can show cracks and fraying around the edges or a glazed (shiny) appearance. They’re signs it’s time to change the belt.

**Q: What about the tensioner pulley?**
A: The tensioner pulley complements the drivebelt and is also subject to wear and possible replacement. Signs it may need replacement include squealing sounds or, if the bearing is failing, a grinding sound while the engine is running.

**Q: What are signs of a failing radiator hose?**
A: A worn or failing radiator coolant hose often develops cracks that lead to leaks. Evidence for that includes drips or puddles beneath the radiator or engine, along with the odor of coolant. The engine may also overheat.

Feels and looks like OEM. This item was a breeze to install and had a much smoother operation than my old one that i had been neglecting to change. It gives the engine a cleaner look and eliminated the slight squeal that the old one was starting to make.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ OEM all the way!
*by S***M on May 18, 2026*

This belt tensioner is currently installed and running. It has not failed like the knock-off which lasted less than a year. If OEM parts are available do hesitate to buy them, even if the cost a little more - you won't be sorry.
