Title: Urgent help needed!!
Post by: star_whites on 25 September 2010, 15:50:55
Anyone got a auxillary belt tensioner for a 1999 vauxhall omega 3.0 available immediately??,.... Just broken down on side of a66 with a knackered tensioner and belt. On my way to kippford on holiday so RAC are going to take us rest of way as can't see no further damage.

I know there is a haldfords in Dumfries for a replacement belt but no idea about getting a tensioner!

I'd have got one out to you but you're going the wrong way for me :( I'm sure someone is up that way though. If not, let me know and I'll get one posted up to wherever you're staying :y

Well it was originally making a noise from that side of the engine bay, but it stopped and everything has been ok ever since until now. I just figured it must of been some dirt in something!........teach me to leave It in future!
