aux belt and tensioner

[willow]

my aux belt has snapped on my clio and one of the tensioners has seized, i need to order the part in the morning so my mechanic can fit it. does any body know the part number for the tensioner, its the 2nd tensioner from the top and its the only smooth one with no grooves in.
cheers

Order the whole kit, afaik the tensioners can be a weak point. For the cost, better off replacing the lot. For ref, just had my whole aux belt kit changed for £180ish, fitted.

they were only replaced 16k ago though so im unsure why its failed?
