Do I buy genuine or pattern belt and tensioner.
Les Henson:
Usually the belt is replaced as part of a kit - belt, tensioner, idler wheel, crankshaft sprocket, idler stud and nut, tensioner hex bolt, washer gasket, and timing cover gasket. The OE crankshaft sprocket has a spot welded shoulder on it that is prone to coming off - with resulting damage to the timing belt or worse if it breaks. I buy a boxed kit from Bearmach - the sprocket shoulder is part of the sprocket itself and doesn't come off, and the belt is Dayco.
I always thought that Dayco supplied timing belts to L/R?

Les Henson:
In that case why replace the tensioner? if it's just the bearing, then replace it.
