These tensioners are designed to hold a predetermined amount of tension on the serpentine belt so it functions properly and keeps your car cruising. Your serpentine belt is like one giant, fast-spinning rubber band. And, like a rubber band, it must maintain a balance of flexibility and tension. Most tensioners feature an internal spring and pulley, which applies needed force against the serpentine belt to keep it tight. If there is not enough tension, a belt can slip, squeal or run hot.
Worst-case scenario: a loose belt may come off of its pulleys. When this happens, all the accessories powered by the engine go kaput and the vehicle will stop running. Quick fact : If your serpentine belt is loose, you may have other mechanical problems like under-performing water pump, which can cause the engine to overheat. Avoid performance loss. Bring your ride in as soon as possible. Need your serpentine belt checked out? Schedule an appointment today. Alternately, your ride may feature a series of V-belts also known as a fan belts , which perform the same all-purpose functions as a serpentine belt.
This belt may drive the water, oil pumps and other key parts. Funny noises may be related to problems with other parts. Never ignore a noise.
