Description

The tensioner damper is responsible for maintianing MINI supercharger belt tenison. This is an essential component as it not only drives the supercharger but also the water pump, so even short periods of engine running after belt failure can lead to serious engine damage through over heating. When the damper fails, belt tension is lost, the belt comes off and the tensioner arm can drop down into the crank pulley causing further damage. Traditionally failure of the damper has meant complete replacement of the tensioner assmebly at a cost of close to £200. This damper replaces the failed item only saving over a £125 on the traditional fix.

The damper is the same item as supplied on the MINI assembly.
