Frankberg Belt Tensioner 90502421 pulley 🚗
Reviews
Product description
This belt tensioner pulley from Frankberg helps maintain correct belt tension on a range of diesel engines, bringing stable performance and simpler replacement during routine maintenance. It is suitable for many passenger and light commercial models produced between 1996 and 2015 and aims to reduce belt slip and noise while supporting accessory drive reliability.
Key Points
The unit is made to match OE style mounting and automatic tensioning operation, so it can be fitted as a direct replacement on compatible engines. Users report that installation is straightforward for anyone experienced with belt systems, and the pulley’s construction focuses on longevity and stable rotation. ⚙️
Compatibility covers several Opel, Vauxhall and Saab models with 2.0–2.2 litre diesel engines, including Astra G, Vectra B and C, Zafira A, Omega B and Saab 9‑3 and 9‑5 variants across various body types and years between 1996 and 2015. Note that specific fitment depends on engine code and production year, and compatibility varies according to the manufacturer, so confirm the correct part number against your vehicle records. 🔧

Usage Recommendations
When replacing a tensioner pulley, inspect the drive belt, idler pulleys and associated bearings at the same time to avoid premature wear of the new component. Tighten bolts to the vehicle maker’s torque figures and follow a sequential belt routing procedure during refit. For workshop use, a tensioning tool or appropriate spanner will make alignment easier and reduce installation time.
Positive Aspects
