Can you buy the 182 aux tensioner separately?

[CrippsCorner]

Hi...

Got my service soon and it's the aux belt/tensioner one. The reason I want to know if it can be purchased separately is because I can get hold of the belt pretty cheap, but if you can't buy the tensioner separately then I'll end up buying a 'kit' and getting another belt with it!

If it is possible, does anyone know the part number? Thanks.

yes you can, but the tensioner on its own is £146 or the full kit is £72 (no i'm not joking)

Got to love renaults prices, just buy the kit

Fred speaks the truth on this just get the kit

INA sell a non-genuine tensioner but thats £86 so i echo Fred... buy the Renault service kit.

it's £175 if you get a gates one from a motor factor

also worth mentioning the lower idler which comes in the genuine kit is £46 on it's own. There's no reason to buy anything but the kit

Right thanks guys, saved me from wasting some money there!

Is £72 the flat rate for the kit? Noticed it's exactly £72 on K-Tec's website not including delivery... guess I won't find it cheaper anywhere else? Might ask my garage if they can get it cheaper than me anyway.
